I have had my period for a month. I am not using any contraceptives or medications, and I am 24 years old. I removed an IUD (Mirena) in March. I have been using super to U-plus tampons every 2-4 hours, with big clots at the beginning and small ones now. I am concerned because the bleeding doesn't seem to be stopping. I am sexually active with one partner, and I have slight pelvic soreness. I was tested for chlamydia in March. What could be causing this prolonged bleeding, and what should I do?

My girlfriend has a red bump on her vagina that appeared recently. It has been there for about a week and is the first time she has experienced this. The bump has shrunk in size over time and feels hard under the skin. It is located in the shaving area, but a doctor has confirmed it is not an ingrown hair. She has no itching, burning, or vaginal discomfort, but she frequently experiences white discharge. What could this bump be and what should she do?

For the past 6 months, my period pain has been getting increasingly worse to the point I can’t get up some days. What could cause that? I’ve also taken Advil and it’s not helping the pain at all. I am 20 years old, have no kids, no history of vaginal discharge, and my periods are always regular, lasting 4-6 days.

I am 31 years old and experiencing breast pain with no lump. My doctor recommended a mammogram, but I am concerned because the recommended age for mammograms is 40. Is it safe for me to have a mammogram, and what could be causing my breast pain?

I am confused about my menstrual cycle. My last period was on March 8, and I usually have a cycle of 25-28 days. This time, I missed my period and experienced brown discharge on day 34, which turned pink. I had unprotected sex on March 20th and am not on birth control. What could be causing this and what should I do?

If I'm 8 weeks and 3 days pregnant, what is my conception date, and if I had unprotected sex on April 5th during ovulation, how far along would I be? Additionally, if I took Plan B on March 16th and had bleeding a week later, did it fail, and could I have conceived on March 16th?
