I recently checked my pap smear results on my patient portal and found some sections labeled as normal and others as abnormal. The sections labeled normal include Pap, LB+hr hpv pathologist and cytotechnologist results. However, there is another section that says abnormal. Which result should I consider as the final interpretation?

I've been spotting continuously for the past 2 weeks. My actual period was January 15 and lasted 7 days, after which I started spotting a week later. I have irregular periods and use Xulane patches, which usually help keep my periods normal. This time, the birth control seems to have stopped working. I had an irregular Pap smear result in June 2023, but my doctor said it was nothing to worry about. I haven't had any stomach pain, dizziness, or vaginal discharge. What could be causing the spotting, and should I be concerned?

I got an IUD last month and I bleed after sex every time now. I haven't had a period, but I get severe pains and cramps, I get lightheaded & body chills. I am also having difficulty eating, I have no appetite anymore and I feel overall sick. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I experienced abnormal vaginal bleeding for a short time and then it stopped. This has never happened before. I am 22 years old, not using any medications, and my periods are generally regular. I had unprotected, somewhat rough vaginal sex on March 4th, and the bleeding started on March 8th. I noticed rare faint spotting before, but the bleeding was more intense this morning. I do not have vaginal itching, swelling, or soreness, but I feel mild cramps.

I've been having my period for eight days now and the flow is abnormally heavy, with blood clots the size of my palm. My periods usually last 4-5 days with a moderately heavy flow on days 2-3. Is there something wrong with me, and what can I do until I can see a doctor?
