I'm 7 days past ovulation and have had light bleeding only when I strain to go to the bathroom. I'm not due for my period until next Tuesday. Could this be early period blood, and why is it only present when I strain?

I think I have trichomoniasis. I've been feeling symptoms for a few days now, including thin white but also faint yellow/green discharge, burning, itching, and sores. I'm 20 years old, on birth control, and currently taking amoxicillin for strep and sertraline for depression. How long have you been concerned about trichomoniasis? What symptoms do you have?

Should my birth control make my uterus feel swollen? I'm not pregnant; it's also making me feel very tired and sick. It started the day I started taking the pills, and it's the only thing I've changed. The swelling is constant, feels like my period is going to start but it just ended, and it's not painful just feels heavy. I'm taking Slynd and I'm 28. I keep having abnormal cells from my pap smear, they never tell me what they are. They randomly went away a few years ago and came back this year. I feel fine before I take the pill and then I'll get sick about half an hour afterwards. I'm not sure it's possible but they make me feel almost high if that makes sense?

I have been experiencing pain in my right breast for the past few weeks. Initially thought to be from strenuous exercise, the pain persists despite stopping the program. The pain is sometimes in the same spot and sometimes moves around, occasionally feeling like a spasm. I have taken Motrin but haven't noticed any change. I plan to mention this to my OBGYN during my annual check-up. What could be causing this pain and what should I do?

I found a bump inside my vagina, a small one on the side, and something black fell off it. There's a little bump underneath. The bump is itchy and hard. How long have you had the bump? Is the bump itchy? What are all the medications you're currently using, either for the bump or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know? I've had unprotected sex with someone repeatedly, should I be worried? What if it doesn't go away with a hot compress? What are some things I should be looking out for if it is something serious?

I have two small white ulcers near the opening of my vagina that appeared suddenly. They don't hurt, and I recently had unprotected sex for a short period. I also suffer from yeast infections. What could these ulcers be, and what should I do?
