I'm 5 weeks pregnant and think I have a UTI. Can I take Ural? I haven't had an ultrasound yet, only urine pregnancy tests. I'm currently taking Sertraline and exercise 2-5 times a week, but I haven't started taking vitamins yet. I've been prescribed folic acid and iron. I also have pain in my left back and groin area, but I'm unsure if it warrants a trip to the emergency room or if I should just rest and drink water.

I've been on birth control for 3.5 years, recently stopped it to try for another baby. I had unprotected sex and now have a pale yellow discharge with no odor, burning, or pain. I've also had a bad lower stomach pain during sex. What could this be and what should I do?

I am having a prolonged period for the first time ever. I had the Liletta IUD placed a little over a year ago for contraception, and my period started two weeks ago. I am using Lisinopril/HCTZ and Semaglutide, and I am 33 years old. My periods are usually very regular and last 4-5 days. I have taken a pregnancy test, which was negative. I have lost weight intentionally over the last six months and have been exercising and dieting. My period seems to be going to stop and then starts again. What could be causing this prolonged period, and what should I do?

Can pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) make you exhausted, and what can be done to alleviate the symptoms?

I had the copper IUD (Paraguard) inserted on Feb 1, 2022. After it was partially dislodged and removed on April 9, I experienced symptoms similar to a UTI, including frequent urinary urgency and discomfort, which coincided with my menstrual periods. I was diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis (BV) and treated with metronidazole, which alleviated the symptoms. However, a month later, I am experiencing similar symptoms again, including irregular periods and urinary urgency, and I am concerned about the recurrence of BV or other underlying issues such as bladder cancer, interstitial cystitis, or overactive bladder. What could be causing these symptoms and how can they be managed or prevented?

I feel like I am having a yeast infection. My vagina is pink, very sensitive, and a bit painful. The pain comes and goes and started yesterday. It feels more itchy than anything else. I am 23 years old and have not used any medications so far. I have vaginal discharge, itching, and a fishy odor, and I am sexually active. What could this be and what can I do about it?
