My daughter, who is 16, started birth control last week and was then put on antibiotics for a sinus infection. She is also taking probiotics and has been experiencing vaginal itching and pain. She used Monistat and Movistar, but her labia are now swollen and she is in a lot of pain. Should I take her to the ER or wait for an urgent care appointment in the morning?

I have a hole in my skin near my vaginal area. I noticed it today and there is a watery discharge with blood coming out of the hole. I am 20 years old, had my last pap test 2 years ago with no irregular results, and have no other significant medical history. What could this be and what should I do?

I've been experiencing brown bleeding discharge and my period doesn't start until 8 days later. I've had unprotected sex and took a pregnancy test, which came out negative. I'm also experiencing fatigue and nausea. What could be the cause of the brown discharge, and should I take another pregnancy test?

I am 7 weeks pregnant and have been experiencing severe nausea and vomiting for the past 3 weeks, which has worsened to several times a day and prevents me from keeping anything down. I have tried B6, Unisom, ginger, and anti-nausea bands, but nothing seems to help. What should I do?

I have been experiencing varying degrees of internal vaginal redness and itching for about a week. I tried over-the-counter yeast infection treatment and vaginal itch relief wipes, but they don't seem to be helping. The itchiness comes and goes, and the skin is red but otherwise looks the same. I had unprotected sex about a week ago. What else can I do to alleviate these symptoms?
