I took a pregnancy test that came out negative, but there's a faint line next to it that I can barely see unless I put it to the light. I'm on birth control, and my period came on during sex last week. I'm trying to ensure my birth control did not fail. Are there any concerns with my situation, and what does the faint line indicate?

I had an hCG blood test today with a level of 1,234. My nurse said it's consistent with 5-6 weeks of pregnancy, but I think I might be either 4 or 8 weeks along due to possible implantation bleeding on Feb 13. My last normal period was Jan 16, and I have a history of miscarriage and 3 live births. What does my hCG level indicate, and what should I expect for future hCG levels if they are rising correctly?

I track my period using an app and my last period came a week early due to a high fever. Now, it's two days late according to the app. I've been sexually active since then but used protection and have taken multiple negative pregnancy tests. Could my last period have thrown off my entire cycle, or should I be concerned about pregnancy?

How do I determine the gestational age of my gestational sac? I see people say theirs measures 4 weeks or 5 weeks. How do I know what mine measures?

Does the blastocyst form at the same speed in all pregnancies, and how long does it take to form?

I think that an antibiotic I was taking caused a yeast infection vaginally. Is there anything I can do to get rid of it? I took 1 dose of Monistat. I am 71 years old and experiencing itchiness. My doctor retired, and I haven’t had a pap test in over a year. I am about to get a new gynecologist but am headed to vacation. This is a new issue since taking medicine for an MRSA infection in my foot. My medication is sulfamethoxazole.
