I tested negative for pregnancy but still don't have periods. Are you using any contraceptives? When did your last period begin? Are you using any medications? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I had protected intercourse and was left incredibly sore for days, leading to a yeast infection. Now my labia is sore and hurts when touched or wiped. The yeast infection is constant, and the pain is achy and sore. I took 1-day Monistat and am using coconut oil on a pad to help with itching and pain. I'm 20 years old and have had these symptoms for the past 3 days. There is no rash, but there is some discharge, occasional blood, and swelling. What should I do for the pain and soreness on my labia?

I recently started taking a lower hormone birth control pill and am experiencing period cramps but no bleeding. I have been on birth control since I was 16, went off it in November, and restarted it in March. My last period was in February after taking a hormone pill to jump-start it. I am 19 years old and take the pill regularly without missing a dose. What could be causing this and what can I do to manage the cramps?

I have been feeling a sharp pain in my lower right abdomen for about a week. I'm worried about what it might be—whether a hernia or ovarian issue. I'm not sure where to go to get it looked at. I made an appointment at a clinic but the first available appointment was 2 weeks away. Is the pain constant or does it come and go? Are you managing the pain with any medications? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I've been taking the progestin-only birth control pill for about 2 months. I had my period from May 20th to 23rd, which was normal. Now, on day 15 of my cycle, I'm spotting light pink. I missed some pill days and took two the next day. Could this be implantation bleeding or ovulation bleeding? What should I do about the faint pelvic pain and vaginal odor? When can I take a pregnancy test?

I have a blister on the outside of my vaginal canal. I noticed it forming yesterday and it has grown bigger and turned white-ish this morning. I am 21 years old, not using any medications, and recently had sexual activity with a new partner. I also noticed irritation after using tampons during my recent period. What could be causing this blister, and what should I do about it?
