I've been experiencing symptoms of endometriosis for years, including bleeding after sex, pain during certain sexual positions, and heavy vaginal discharge after periods. I'm 25 years old, not on any medications or birth control, and had a recent pap smear that came back normal. I also have excruciating periods and a history of hypothyroidism, which is now under control. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do next?

I've never been diagnosed with HPV, but my recent pap smear showed benign changes related to HPV. Could I have been carrying this virus for over 30 years without knowing? I've only been with my husband for the past 30 years. Should I be concerned, and is it possible to detect the specific HPV strain that could cause cervical cancer? Should I insist on a quicker repeat of the Pap smear?

Can you get Trichomonas vaginalis without having sex with multiple partners? What could cause Trichomonas randomly, and how else can you get it? Is it possible for Trichomonas to go undetected for years, months, or days? What sexual activities carry the infection, and could not showering for a while and having sex be a cause?
