I took Plan B on Sunday, May 14th, and today is May 19th. I am experiencing light spotting. How do I know if it’s from Plan B or implantation bleeding? I had intercourse on the first day of my menstrual cycle with a condom, and two days after my cycle, and took Plan B. The condom got stuck inside me for about an hour. I am 23 years old, my last period was May 8-11, and my periods are regular. I am on Prozac and just finished amoxicillin antibiotics. I also have some abdominal pain and am extremely constipated. I took a negative pregnancy test today, but intercourse was only on Sunday. I started Junel birth control 6 days ago, and my period is supposed to come in 7 days. How will this affect my cycle?

I am experiencing extreme thick, paste-like, smooth, white, odorless vaginal discharge. It has been progressively worse for over six weeks. My gynecologist suggested it might be an overgrowth of normal vaginal bacteria, but it hasn't balanced itself out. I had a hysterectomy 17 years ago and have hormone pellets inserted. I tried an OTC yeast infection treatment, which only made it worse. I am allergic to milk, take probiotics regularly, and follow a pescatarian, gluten-free diet. What could be causing this and what else can I try to treat it?

I am a 32-year-old divorced woman who has been struggling with yeast infections after sex since August two years ago. The symptoms include urethral irritation, burning, and itching, which do not resolve with over-the-counter medications and require a doctor's visit. I have been checked for STIs and have no other medical issues. My periods have also become irregular since this started. What could be causing this and what can I do to manage or resolve it?

I have Graves' disease and have had regular periods since I was 10 years old, even after being diagnosed. Does this mean I can have children? Additionally, I experience heightened sexual desire a week after my period. Does this indicate ovulation, and how can I confirm if I ovulate?

I recently got an IUD about 2 months ago, but I'm bleeding through my tampon in less than an hour. Has the bleeding been stable or getting worse? Are you using any medications, either for the bleeding or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I am trying to figure out if I am pregnant. I have been having unprotected sex for about 3 months, and recently experienced unusual bleeding after a negative home pregnancy test. Could I be pregnant, and would the position of my uterus affect my HCG levels?
