I have pain in my ovaries, specifically on the right side, which started recently after eating chips and chocolates. The pain is ache-like and comes and goes. I am 22 years old, have no family doctor, and have been in Canada for 5 years. My last menstrual period was in the last week of October, and I am due for my next period in the last week of November. There is no abnormal vaginal discharge. What could be causing this pain and what should I do?

Can I get pregnant from sitting on a toilet seat where my boyfriend ejaculated earlier, and why do I suddenly feel sick with nausea and bloating?

I had unprotected sex during my ovulation period and took Plan B the next morning. I'm experiencing heavy brown blood and bad cramping, but my pregnancy tests are negative. Could these symptoms be due to Plan B rather than pregnancy?

I have been bleeding and passing large blood clots for 7 days, with the bleeding getting heavier each day. My period never fully came about 2 weeks ago, but I was lightly spotting dark brown blood and passing some dark brown tissue. I am not using any contraceptives and had a tubal ligation done in 2011. My last pap test was about 2 years ago, and I have been doing a cleanse. Could this be related to my recent thyroid level fluctuation or the cleanse? Should I go to the ER, and what could be causing this?

I’m having mid cycle bleeding that’s heavy and with clots. It has been going on for 7 days and is getting worse. I’m using an antibiotic for a UTI and I’m 18 years old. I typically have regular periods and do not use any contraceptives. I recently moved a few months ago but otherwise, there haven’t been significant changes in my lifestyle, body weight, diet, or activity levels. Are there any underlying conditions that could be causing this heavy bleeding, and what should I do about it?
