I just had a positive pregnancy test and have been spotting for the past two weeks, which has recently worsened to the point of needing a panty liner. The discharge is dark brown and there is no fresh blood. I also have PCOS. Is there cause for worry, and what should I do?

Spotting during early pregnancy is not uncommon, but persistent spotting for two weeks that is worse...

I had condom sex not long ago and a couple of days later, I noticed bumps around my vagina opening. What could it be?

I am on birth control (Pirmella 1/35) and started taking antibiotics (cefuroxime 500mg twice a day) on 2/17/21. I had unprotected sex multiple times between 2/19 and 2/28. My last period was on 2/3, and I experienced spotting on the day my period usually starts, but it stopped after three days. I tested negative for pregnancy on 3/1 and 3/5. Could it be too early to test since I was on birth control, and if I ovulated, my period would be later than normal? Could the spotting have been implantation bleeding?

I've been bleeding for more than one month and have been diagnosed with two fibroids in my uterus. I'm on birth control and considering a D&C procedure. What could be causing the bleeding, and is the D&C a safe and effective solution?

Is it okay to have sex and take Zyrtec during the first trimester of pregnancy, given that the baby is doing well and there is no current spotting?

I just found out I was pregnant and have a question about my blood work. My HCG was 43 and my prog was only .5, which suggests a non-viable pregnancy. I had bleeding on February 26th that lasted for two days, followed by light spotting until March 4th when I got a positive pregnancy test. I'm still getting a positive pregnancy test with a darker line, and I'm confused about the chances of this being a non-viable pregnancy.
