I have been taking a progestin-only pill called Sharobel for the past couple of months. Today, I switched to a combined pill, Estrallya, and experienced leg pain after taking the first pill. The pain is constant and achy, and I also have swelling in my left calf due to a poor valve in my vein. Can I switch back to Sharobel, and if so, when should I start taking it again?

My last period date was September 13, and it has been 14 days more than my expected date of period this month. I am 19 years old, not taking any medications or vitamins, and my pregnancy test was negative. I have been drinking alcohol this month and experiencing irregular sleeping due to shifts. Is it the reason for the change in my menstrual cycle?

I have a laceration near my vagina that burns when I urinate and wipe. It's been a few days since it occurred, and this is the first time I've experienced this. My last pap test and pelvic exam were in March, and the results were normal. The laceration came from intercourse. How long will it take to heal, and what should I do to manage the discomfort?

I'm experiencing yellow discharge after using Monistat for a suspected yeast infection. The white discharge started yesterday, and the yellow started around 2 PM today. I have irritation and vaginal burning or itching, but no noticeable odor or sores. My last period started on July 27th and ended around August 1st. I had sexual intercourse on Saturday and a few days before, but I haven't had any recent check-ups or pap smears. I have inappropriate tachycardia and POT syndrome. What could be causing this discharge, and what should I do?
