I just found out I am pregnant. I took two pregnancy tests and both came back positive. I am 4 weeks along and have started taking iron (45mg) and prenatal gummies. I have a history of recurring BV and mild cramping. I am also concerned about my recent alcohol consumption and marijuana use. What should I be doing for a healthy pregnancy before my appointment?

My daughter, who is 16, started birth control last week and was then put on antibiotics for a sinus infection. She is also taking probiotics and has been experiencing vaginal itching and pain. She used Monistat and Movistar, but her labia are now swollen and she is in a lot of pain. Should I take her to the ER or wait for an urgent care appointment in the morning?

I have a hole in my skin near my vaginal area. I noticed it today and there is a watery discharge with blood coming out of the hole. I am 20 years old, had my last pap test 2 years ago with no irregular results, and have no other significant medical history. What could this be and what should I do?

I've been experiencing brown bleeding discharge and my period doesn't start until 8 days later. I've had unprotected sex and took a pregnancy test, which came out negative. I'm also experiencing fatigue and nausea. What could be the cause of the brown discharge, and should I take another pregnancy test?

I am 7 weeks pregnant and have been experiencing severe nausea and vomiting for the past 3 weeks, which has worsened to several times a day and prevents me from keeping anything down. I have tried B6, Unisom, ginger, and anti-nausea bands, but nothing seems to help. What should I do?
