I missed a period in February and experienced unusual bleeding for the last 3 weeks, characterized by pink and rusty brown colors, with medium to light flow for half a day, followed by nothing for a couple of days, and then returning as medium flow again for half a day. Last night, I experienced severe cramps and passed a blood clot or tissue the size of the palm of my hand. Should I see a doctor?

I have had two negative HSV blood tests, one during pregnancy and one recently. I am a worrywart and need to know if I should trust these results. Should I ask my NP to do blood tests for herpes 1&2 during my annual wellness exam? Would this be an accurate test? If the third test also comes back negative, can I trust the results as conclusive?

I had a blood test that showed an HCG level of 149 IU/L. I am 35 years old, had a miscarriage in December, and my last period began on March 26. What does this HCG level mean?

I think I have vaginal thrush. I've been experiencing open, itchy, red, and painful sores for 34 days, and I believe they are growing. I'm using pain pills and recently had an allergic reaction to medication for a UTI. What could this be, and what should I do?

I have a rash on the outer part of my vagina and a little on my thighs. It's itchy, swollen, red, and the skin is peeling. I've tried using cortisone cream, but it didn't completely help. I'm concerned about what it could be and what I should do.

I am experiencing strong burning when I urinate, itchy vagina, cloudy urine, and little bleeding. Why is this?
