I started spotting dark red one week after my last period ended. I use condoms for contraception, and the spotting has been inconsistent for 6 days. My last period was from December 28-31, and I have never experienced spotting before. I have had chronic stress but no stomach pain, dizziness, or vaginal discharge. I am 29 years old and have regular periods. I did not take any emergency contraceptive pills. I have not passed any blood clots or experienced lower abdomen cramps. Recently, I began having slight clotting. What could be causing the spotting and clotting, and what should I do?

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex using the withdrawal method, and I took Plan B about an hour and a half later. I am supposed to be ovulating today, which is one day after the predicted ovulation date. What are the chances that I’m pregnant?

I think I had a yeast infection a couple of weeks ago and used Monistat, which improved it slightly. After my period, it seemed to go away, but then I noticed mild itching again. Four days after my period, I noticed a bad smell and a cheesy discharge. Could I have vaginitis from the yeast infection?

I've been noticing changes in my period, such as increased pain, earlier onset of PMS symptoms (up to 3 weeks before), painful ovulation, and a burning sensation in my face and eyes during PMS. My cycles are usually regular but sometimes come a week late. I also pass large clots and experience significant mood changes during and before my period. I used to suffer from hyperinsulinism but was medicated for it. Should I be concerned about these changes, and what tests or treatments should I consider?
