I have blood in my urine when I pee, and I feel pain when I pee. I am a female, 21 years old, and have noticed this issue today. I also have to pee more frequently since noticing the blood. Are there any other symptoms I should be aware of, and what could be causing this?

I have had an IUD for the last 4 years and, other than some light spotting, I haven’t had my period during that time. Weeks ago, I started feeling tired and have been gaining weight (even though I have been closely watching what I eat). This week I started getting nauseous and occasionally vomiting in the morning and my lower abdomen has started to bloat, making my clothes not fit. I took a urine pregnancy test and it’s negative. What else could be going on and causing these symptoms?

I am 77 years old and discovered a large, pea-sized, round, solid lump on the outside of my vaginal area, just to the right of my vaginal opening. The lump has been present for a couple of months and seems to have grown larger. It is smooth, solid, and not painful or itchy. I am currently not using any medications, and I have a clean bill of health from my internist. What could this lump be, and what should I do about it?

What could be the reason for feeling pain at the ovary location after receiving the COVID-19 vaccination? The pain is not permanent and often appears and disappears on its own. I also experienced similar pain after the first HPV vaccination. Could you please help me with this?
