I was told yesterday that I was pregnant, very early on. I’ve been having severe cramping and the ultrasound looked about 4 weeks. I passed something today that looked like an embryo but I still test positive for pregnancy and I’m not bleeding. Is it likely that I miscarried?

I am 54 years old and have been going through perimenopause for 20 years, experiencing irregular periods and severe lower back pain during my current 12-day period. I also have conditions such as RA, OA, DDD, a broken L5, Barrett's esophagus, and worsening acid reflux despite taking 40mg Nexium daily. Is this normal for my age and medical conditions, or should I seek further medical attention?

I am having symptoms of a yeast infection and am concerned about BV. I took one dose of Monistat 1 on Wednesday, but the discharge and itching are still bothering me. Should I do more or wait? Is it safe to use boric acid suppositories after using Monistat? How long does a yeast infection typically show symptoms?

I’m having very light brown spotting and I’m 5 weeks pregnant. Should I be concerned? I have my first appointment scheduled for November 17, use melatonin and chamomile tea occasionally, take prenatals daily, exercise 3-5 times per week, and have a history of two previous miscarriages and an IUD removal two and a half months ago.

I believe I had implantation bleeding, but a pregnancy test came back negative. I have experienced unusual menstrual bleeding and mild cramping. I have never used contraceptives and my periods have always been regular. What could be the cause of these symptoms and what should I do next?
