I saw a GYN surgeon in July for possible ovarian cancer. He removed my tubes and at least my right ovary to preserve some hormones since I am 41 years old. I started having pelvic pain last month. A CT scan showed my left ovary or cyst increased in size from 3.9cm to 4cm. A recent ultrasound showed a complex cyst on my left ovary that has grown larger. What exactly is a complex cyst, is it serious, and what treatment might I need, including the possibility of surgery?

I had unprotected sex 5 days ago and now I'm experiencing vaginal burning and irritation. The burning has intensified over the past day. I tried using Monistat 7, but it made the burning worse. What should I do for relief?

I had my period in January. I'm on birth control, specifically the Zafemy patch, and it's my patch-free week, but I still haven't had my period. I took a pregnancy test, which came back negative. I have all the symptoms of my period but no blood comes down. Is something wrong with me?

I went on the Depo shot on February 3rd, and my boyfriend and I had sex the day after with him ejaculating inside me. My period is now 4 days late. Should I get a pregnancy test, or is my period late because of the Depo shot? Additionally, I have been experiencing mild cramps, nausea, and vomiting, and after having sex, it feels okay but afterwards it burns and hurts.

I forgot to take my birth control pill and had unprotected sex, then took both the missed pill and the new morning-after pill called Julie. My period is late, and I'm worried I might be pregnant. When should I take a pregnancy test?
