I have PCOS and I am trying to get pregnant. My cycles are irregular, and I have been trying since July 2019. I have done tests like sugar level, TVS, and Pap smear, which detected PCOS. I am weighing 79kg and my height is 1.70m. I was asked to do a hormonal profile on days 3 and 21 of my cycle. Can I still ovulate and get pregnant naturally with PCOS? If not, can I take Clomid to boost my fertility? When should I start taking Clomid, and should I do it before or after the hormonal profile test? Also, I was advised to do HGS, but is it necessary before checking my hormonal levels?

I took 3 positive pregnancy tests and am experiencing symptoms such as sore breasts, a late period, and feeling generally unwell. I am 24 years old, had a pap test 6 months ago with no issues, and do not have a primary doctor. I am unsure of what to do next due to COVID-19 restrictions on walk-in appointments. What should I do?

I need help with my menstruation health. I was on birth control pills for 8 years and stopped taking them in September 2020. I had my period once since stopping the pill and haven't had it since. Should I schedule an appointment for a check-up?

I stopped taking my birth control pills 3 weeks ago because I was spotting a lot and now my period is late. I have been experiencing cramps, discharge, and nausea. I had unprotected sex on October 20th and took a home pregnancy test, which was negative. What could be causing my late period and what should I do?

I shower at least 2 times a day and drink a lot of water, but recently I have noticed an odd smell coming from my vagina. I started using a new vaginal wash (L. brand) about 3 weeks ago, and the smell started after my first period without birth control, which ended on the 17th. I didn't have this smell even during my period. I use condoms for contraception and am on 100mg sertraline (Zoloft). I have a slightly yellow or beige discharge and some itching, but no swelling, soreness, pain, or burning sensation with urination. What could be causing this and what can I do about it?

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant without success since June 2019. I am 27 years old, have irregular menstrual cycles (lasting 2 or 3 months), and weigh 320 lbs at 5'7". I have never had a pap test or pelvic exam, and no investigations for my irregular cycles have been conducted. How can my irregular cycles and weight affect my chances of conception, and what steps should I take to address this?
