I've been experiencing irritation and a burning sensation in my vagina, which comes and goes. I don't believe it's a UTI, as I've had one before and it's different. I'm 22 years old, sexually active, and recently had abnormal discharge with a stronger smell after missing my birth control for a week. I've started taking it again, and the discharge has stopped. Additionally, after having unprotected sex with my fiancé, I often experience pain and a burning sensation when I urinate, which goes away after some time. What could be causing these issues, and what can I do to address them?

I am a 21-year-old woman who experienced heavy bleeding after being intimate with my boyfriend. My period is not due for some time, and I am not using contraceptives or any medications other than supplements and vitamins. I usually have spotting a few days before my period, but this was different. Is this a serious problem, and what could be the cause?

I have redness and soreness between my vagina and buttocks. It stings when I wash that area, and it burns when I poop. I have lupus and a bad toothache, and I was taking amoxicillin and ibuprofen. What could be causing this, and what can I do to treat it?

I had a birth control shot in March but didn't get the second shot in June. I've been off birth control since then and haven't had a period. I've been cramping but no period. I'm trying to get pregnant. What's happening and what should I expect?

Headaches during early pregnancy are normal. I have been experiencing slight headaches around my right eye, bridge of nose, and back of neck on the right side. I am 33 years old, in my third pregnancy, and have checked my blood pressure, which was 115/74. Additionally, I have been experiencing daily cramping, which I was told is mild but feels sharp and moderate to severe to me. I am worried about this pregnancy.

What does irregular bleeding from Plan B look like? I’m experiencing this right now, I’ve talked to multiple doctors and they all said it’s normal but I don’t know what a normal amount of blood would look like. I already got my period after taking the pill and have experienced light brown spotting, but now it’s blood. It’s not enough to fill a whole pad but it comes out in the toilet and when I wipe.
