I am 12 days late for my period. I have not taken any pregnancy tests and my boyfriend and I have had superficial intimate relationships with no penetration. Can I get pregnant from rubbing while my boyfriend is wearing his underwear? Also, I have recently gained weight due to a high-stress job. Can this be causing my irregular periods? If I start a diet, can it help balance my hormones?

I have had several yeast infections in the last couple of months, and despite tests showing no active yeast, I still experience vulvar pain and burning. I've used Mycelex ointment/cream and terconozole cream, which helped temporarily. I also have some abrasions that may be from sex. What could be causing my persistent symptoms and what treatments should I consider?

I am 74 years old and have experienced spotting three times in the past two months. I am not sexually active and have no pain, but some backaches. My last pap test was 3 or 4 years ago with no irregular results. I take low-dose aspirin and pravastatin daily. What could be causing the spotting?

I am in the beginning of my 4th pregnancy and I'm feeling something like Braxton Hicks already all day today. Is there an explanation for this?
