I have severe and extreme PMDD with symptoms including severe breast pain and swelling, anger, irritability, depression, anxiety, and panic. I've tried exercise, meditation, supplements, and SSRIs without success. Recently, topical progesterone has reduced my symptoms to 6-7 days of misery instead of 2 weeks.

I have a question about my AMH level. My AMH level is 32.6 ng/ml, which I understand is high. I am 20 years old, my period is regular, and I have no known health problems or medications. I was trying to be an egg donor. What could be causing my high AMH level, and how can I lower it?

I have severe pain around the outside of my vagina and one sore inside. The pain started 3 days ago and is constant, making it impossible to sit down or have sex. The pain is sharp and stabbing. I am currently taking antidepressants, anxiety medications, a muscle relaxer, and Tylenol. I am 20 years old with no other significant medical history. What could be causing this pain and what should I do?

I received high results for Atopobium vaginae and Megasphaera1, indicating possible bacterial vaginosis. I only have one partner and have not shared sex toys or engaged in oral-genital contact with anyone else. Does this mean my husband is cheating on me?
