I'm experiencing light bleeding, lower back pain, and increased fatigue. My period is due on September 7, and I have type 2 diabetes. I'm also concerned about the possibility of pregnancy due to previous miscarriages. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I have been trying to get pregnant for over a year without success. I quit contraception two years ago and have been using ovulation strips and Mira for a month. Mira indicates fluctuating LH levels (2, 15, and 2.6). I feel like I ovulated late, but the numbers are low. What could be the issue, and should I be concerned about my LH levels?

I have a question about nipple pain. It started day before yesterday and is mostly constant. The pain is more of a sharp ache. I'm 26 years old and not taking any medications. My nipples look fine with no redness, swelling, or cracks. The pain is not severe, just very uncomfortable, and I'm about 2 1/2 weeks away from my period. What could be causing this pain and how long does it typically take to stop hurting?

I’m 6 weeks 5 days pregnant and no fetal pole has been detected. Am I miscarrying? I have had some mild cramping off and on for a few weeks. I delayed my period with birth control, which came on 8/13-8/14 and lasted 4-5 days. Could this affect the timing of conceiving?

I'm 26 years old and recently noticed that my cervix feels swollen and numb. I had a normal OBGYN visit last week and my last pap test was a year ago. I'm on my period and have been using a menstrual cup instead of tampons. Could the suction from the cup be causing this issue? The numbness seems to be going away now.

I notice I bleed for several days after having sex. The bleeding is on and off, sometimes it goes away and sometimes it's more than usual. I'm 19 years old, not using any medications, and had a pregnancy termination in March 2023. I've never been tested for STDs and I'm not on birth control. What could be causing this bleeding and what should I do?
