I need a pap smear. I had one 5 years ago, and now I have a persistent odor when I pee. My doctor suggested I see a mental health doctor, but I believe I need a gynecological check-up. What should I do?

I'm 66 years old and had a partial hysterectomy when I was 30. I was on hormone therapy seven years ago, but I've gained 30 pounds in the last 1.5 years since moving and seeing a new doctor. My new doctor says my hormones are elevated, specifically estrogen. I'm experiencing weight gain and poor sleep. What could be causing this and what can I do about it?

I started taking Loloestrin at the start of my period and have experienced heavy bleeding and cramping ever since. Now I am feeling symptoms of anemia. I just need my period to stop. Do I stop taking the pills? I have cramps in the front and lower back most days, and my period is usually every 21-35 days and often heavy, lasting 7-10 days. This one is still going since October 20. I'm 46 and take Advil and Aleve for the cramps. I also take meds for my thyroid, but recent blood work shows it's fine. I have endometriosis and have had one surgery to remove adhesions. My uterus was tilted during a recent pelvic ultrasound, and I've had cysts in the past but never fibroids.

Hello, I noticed my breast has been swollen and I am having dizziness, feeling feverish. This started about two weeks ago, and I went to do a scan and blood test, finding out I was not pregnant. After a vacation, the symptoms worsened. I checked with a test strip and found out I am pregnant, although I am yet to confirm with a blood test. The swelling is painful and getting worse, affecting the whole breast. I am 23 years old, not using any medications, and have a history of PID for which I was treated for one week but have not rechecked.
