I recently got the Nexplanon birth control implant and am experiencing yeast infection symptoms (itchiness, discomfort, and pain) without discharge. This issue also occurred when I was on the mini pill. What could be causing this and is there a way to balance my pH levels to alleviate these symptoms?

The symptoms you're experiencing could be related to a yeast or fungal infection, even though you do...

I'm 18 years old and noticed abnormal vaginal discharge yesterday, which changed from clear with small white particles to yellow later in the day. My vagina is a little red and it's painful when I pee. I don't have abdominal pain, and my last menstrual cycle was in mid/late July. I'm sexually active with one consistent partner and have been screened for STDs before. I started over-the-counter yeast infection medication but developed a fever of 101.4 F, which reduced after treatment, but is now 101.2 F with consistent headaches. I also have a slight mucus buildup in my throat. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

Can cervical cryotherapy cause periods to act weird? I have always had normal periods every 28 days, bleeding for 5 days since I was 11. I had cryotherapy in March to treat cervical dysplasia, and since then, I've had irregular periods with varying lengths and blood flow. I also experienced a severe yeast infection in May that didn't respond to treatment until my period became irregular. Additionally, I've started experiencing burning sensations on my thighs and folliculitis despite good hygiene practices. What could be causing these changes?

Why am I bleeding after completing my period 5 days ago, especially after having sex and taking Plan B?

I recently shaved and used boric acid, which led to clear bumps and irritation in the genital area. The bumps have been present for about 4 days, are itchy, and have started bleeding. I am also experiencing white, milky discharge. I am concerned about the possibility of herpes, especially since I had unprotected sex the night before the breakout. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

I noticed a swollen area on the outside of one of my nipples today. It doesn't hurt, and I am 35, healthy, and have never been pregnant. My inverted nipples have always been normal for me, and my last annual breast exam/pap smear was last August. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned about it being something serious like Paget's Disease or a symptom of breast cancer?
