I had a yeast infection last week and was prescribed fluconazole on Friday the 16th, which I took as instructed. I had a fever all last week and the sores from the yeast infection just started feeling better today. However, I've been experiencing bad headaches, a higher resting heart rate, and intermittent fevers. I'm unsure if these symptoms are related to the yeast infection or if there might be another issue. Do I need to be concerned about these new symptoms, and should I seek further medical attention?

I am in my 38th week of pregnancy and my baby is moving a lot. Is it a sign of labor, and am I also feeling pressure sometimes?

I have been experiencing stomach bleeds for the past 4 days, unable to keep anything down, including water. My stomach is swollen, and my urine is almost red. I have been given IV fluids and medications at the hospital, but the symptoms have returned. My back is tender, and I am currently taking Ondansetron, Famotidine, Lansoprazole, and Tylenol. I am 33 years old and do not drink alcohol. My stomach looks swollen, and my bowel movements appear black. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

I missed my birth control pill on Monday and doubled up on Tuesday, then had sex from Wednesday to Friday. I missed another pill on Saturday and doubled up on Sunday. I induced my period, but it's much lighter than usual. Could this be implantation bleeding, and what are the implications of doubling up on my pills?

I had sex over the weekend and a couple days later, I experienced itching in my vaginal area. I thought it might be a yeast infection, but I started my period, making it hard to tell if I have the typical discharge. I'm worried it could be genital herpes. How can I tell the difference, and what should I do about the itching and discomfort?
