I had unprotected sex on April 16 and took Plan B early morning on April 17. My last period was April 11-13, and I missed my periods in May and June. I took negative pregnancy tests both at home and at the doctor's. Can Plan B cause me to miss two periods? Is there a chance I'm pregnant despite the negative tests? What could be causing my missed periods, and should I get an examination?

I have been experiencing vaginal itching for the past 3-4 days, which comes and goes. I have tried treating it with Monistat (1-day treatment) but it has not worked well. The itching is mostly noticeable when I wipe and there is no burning sensation during urination. I am not sure if it's a yeast infection or something else. What should I do?

I've been experiencing abnormal bleeding for about 5 months, accompanied by sharp, achey pain in the abdominal area. My periods have become irregular this year, and I've been bleeding every day since February, with blood clots. I've seen my OBGYN, who did an ultrasound and found no fibroids or abnormalities, but the pain and discomfort persist. I'm 29 years old, have PTSD and narcolepsy, and take medication for both. I'm not on any hormone pills and change my pad around 6-7 times a day. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I had a mammogram and was advised to have an ultrasound due to density, followed by a recommendation for a biopsy. I am concerned about the possibility of cancer and the thickening of the uterus, for which I had a biopsy. Additionally, I experience frequent heartburn and am worried about stomach cancer. What should I do about these concerns?

I have gained over 100 pounds within a year, experienced prolonged bleeding for 6 months, and feel generally unwell. My thyroid blood work is fine, but my symptoms match hypothyroidism. Could it be something else, and what general health advice can you provide?
