I am a 69-year-old woman who has been absent from sexual intercourse for eight years and is now experiencing vaginal tightness and dryness, making intercourse painful. I use coconut oil nightly as a UTI preventative and have had breast cancer, so I should avoid estrogen. What over-the-counter products, supplements, or non-estrogen prescriptions can help improve my situation?

I have a question about molar pregnancy bleeding and ectopic pregnancy bleeding. Do they both occur monthly like a period? Additionally, I'm concerned about my partner who has had periods in December and January, but sometimes experiences vomiting during her periods. Should I be concerned, and can stress cause a period to come early?

I'm experiencing pain during sex, localized inside the vagina on the left side, for the past two days. The pain is sharp. I had a yeast infection weeks ago, and now I'm noticing thick white cottage cheese-like discharge, similar to what I had before. I used a minty lube from Swiss Navy, which I don't particularly like, and I'm wondering if that could be causing the issue. I'm 28 years old and not on any medications, but I do have some anxiety and stress.

I'm almost 7 weeks pregnant and I'm spotting, which comes and goes. Should I be worried? The spotting started last night and happened last weekend as well. I went to the ER and it was a cyst. I've been experiencing nausea, lower back pain, stomach pain, dizziness, and vaginal discharge. I'm currently taking prenatal vitamins. I had a miscarriage a year ago in 2012.

I have concerns about abnormal vaginal discharge that comes and goes, sometimes yellow, sometimes green, and currently bright green and tacky, with no odor or itching. My last period was abnormal, and I have a history of an abnormal pap and a leep procedure. What could be causing this discharge and what can I do about it?
