I'm 35 years old and just found out I'm pregnant. I had a root canal three weeks ago and a crown procedure four days ago, which involved X-rays, numbing, and an amalgam filling. I also took ibuprofen 600 mg for a week after the root canal and recently ate a medium-well burger. Are these exposures and actions potentially harmful to my pregnancy?

You do not need to worry about any of these exposures or actions potentially harming your pregnancy....

I ejaculated on her stomach and cleaned it off with a warm wet towel. I’m worried that she may have either taken the sperm from the towel to put it in her vagina or maybe wiped herself with the towel with sperm on it to get herself pregnant. Is that possible?

A few days ago, I noticed a weird smell coming from my private part. I had no other symptoms. I saw a nurse today who prescribed me Macrogel (antibiotic cream) without performing any exam. Today, a forgotten tampon that must have been there for a few days came out. Was all of this because of the tampon? Do I still keep applying the cream? Am I at risk of developing Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS)?

I had an IUD removed in June and experienced slight bleeding a couple of weeks later. In July, I was prescribed prednisone for two months, which caused significant stress and emotional distress. Since stopping prednisone five months ago, I have not had a period. My doctors initially attributed this to the IUD, but I suspect it might be related to the prednisone. Now, I am on Methotrexate. Can you help me understand if my adrenal glands can recover after being off prednisone for five months, and if my lack of periods could be related to the prednisone or stress?

I have spotting after intercourse every single time. I went to a gynecologist last month who did a pelvic exam and Pap smear, both of which came back normal. I have never had this bleeding before and it's worrying me. What could be causing this bleeding, and should I be concerned about cancer?

I took a pregnancy test and it is positive. I would like an abortion pill. Are you currently taking any medications? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know? Can student insurance cover this? Do I need a prescription for these medications? Do you know of a clinic that can prescribe them for me? Are there any risks for taking the pill? Are the consequences reversible? I have only done two pregnancy tests at intervals of about a week and a half, and during the month of April I did not have my period. The last test was done today around 10 a.m. and it was positive. Does that make sure I'm really pregnant? I also have small nausea often and my chest is very painful.
