I have skipped periods and received hormonal blood test results showing high levels of DHEA Sulfate, TSH, Estradiol, and Testosterone. My last period was on 6/15, and I am not using any contraceptives or other medications except levothroid for Grave's Disease. I am 43 years old and have been in perimenopause for a while. My thyroid levels have been fluctuating, and I am concerned about the high Estradiol level. What could be causing these high levels, and what should I expect from my upcoming appointments with my OBGYN and endocrinologist?

I'm concerned that I might have an STD. I'm experiencing itchiness, popped blisters on my genitals, and bumps inside my vaginal lips. I had unprotected sex on June 23, 2022. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I recently had a bacterial vaginosis (BV) treated with antibiotics, which led to a yeast infection. After treating the yeast infection with a 3-day antifungal cream, the symptoms have returned. What could be causing this recurrence and what steps can I take to prevent it?

My vagina itches really bad and woke me up from sleep. I think it’s a yeast infection. When did the itchiness start? Has it been constant or does it come and go? Does your skin look any different? Do you have any known allergies? Anything else in your medical history the Doctor should know?

I have been experiencing itchiness in the genital area for the past 2 weeks, but there is no burning sensation when I pee. I am a 52-year-old female, and I haven't had a period in 4 months. I have no known allergies and have been taking antibiotics for a month. There are no bumps, sores, or changes in discharge, and I have not been diagnosed with an STD. I have tried an over-the-counter itch cream, but it has not helped.

I have recently undergone an embryo implantation, which is now 5 weeks old. I have had brown spotting for a few days, but today I experienced sudden heavy red bleeding. Is this normal, and what should I do about the medications I'm taking, including Utragestan, Folic acid, Provames (estrogen), and Progesterone?
