I had sex with a prostitute using a condom, but after ejaculation, she wiped my penis with wet wipes, and I suspect her vaginal fluid might have been on her hand. I developed a fever 10 days later. Do I need to worry about HIV or other infections?

I had a tampon stuck inside me for about three months. It recently came out, and I was feeling nauseous and dizzy during that time. I'm 40 years old and trying to get pregnant. Will I be okay, and will this affect my chances of conceiving?

Why am I spotting and bleeding after ovulation? I'm 21 years old, my last period was June 15-20th, and I started spotting on July 11th. I have gained some weight recently but no significant stress. The bleeding was somewhat heavy for two days but only when I wiped, and it went from spotting to bleeding back to spotting in the same day. I also experienced breast tenderness and light cramping on the left side. I was hoping to be pregnant as that is my goal, but this bleeding happened four days after ovulation. Could this be implantation bleeding, and if so, what symptoms should I expect? Also, can implantation bleeding pass clots, and if I'm experiencing hormonal imbalance, can I still be pregnant?

I am pregnant and experiencing genital irritation. I have tested negative for yeast and bacterial vaginosis. The irritation started at 20 weeks, and I am currently 38 weeks pregnant. I have used Monistat and antibiotics. My vaginal pH is almost 5. Is this normal during pregnancy, and will the irritation resolve after delivery?
