I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant and experiencing itchiness on the bottom of my feet and my hands. The itchiness started a few days ago and comes and goes, mainly in the afternoon and night. My skin only turns red when I scratch it. I drink water throughout the day, but recently found mold in my cup straw, which may have affected my water intake. Should I be concerned about this itchiness, and is there anything I should do until my next OB/GYN appointment on October 6th?

I’ve started bleeding about 15 days after my normal period and it’s kind of watery. It’s enough bleeding to where I need to use a tampon. I am not using any contraceptives or medications, and I'm 26 years old. This is the first time this has happened, and my menstrual cycles have always been irregular. What could be causing this and what should I do?

If someone I am sexually active with had an HSV 1 IGG test result of 52.20, does that mean they are positive for herpes?

I have a feeling of cuts in my vaginal area, which recently started and worsens during bowel movements. I also have off and on pain in my groin area. I take blood pressure meds, cholesterol meds, and menopausal meds, but none are new. What could this be and what can I do about it?

I confirmed with my OBGYN that there was no fetal heartbeat. I was measured at 8 weeks and 0 days on the 17th of Feb, at 7 weeks and 1 day on the 28th of Feb at the ER, and at 7 weeks and 2 days today. How can a baby shrink and what explains the 1 day growth? Also, is there any truth to the Doppler ultrasound sometimes not detecting the heartbeat at this stage?
