I'm experiencing period cramps and brown spotting instead of regular bleeding. My last period was on May 24, and I expected my next one around June 24. I've been under more stress lately and have had mild cramping on the first day of my period for the past few months. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have been on and off the pill for 2 years and had unprotected sex on August 26th and 27th. I started a period on August 30th, which I initially thought was normal but now am concerned it might be ovulation bleeding. Can I still have conceived and have a potential chance of getting pregnant?

I have a dull achy pain on the left side of the labia major. The pain started this morning and hurts more if I touch it. I have HPV. There is slight redness, but nothing different than the right side. What could be causing this pain?

I am 44 years old and in perimenopause. My hair has become thinner, brittle, dry, and lifeless due to aging and a drop in hormones. I have tried various supplements, diet, and exercise without significant improvement. I am interested in natural bioidentical hormones and placenta cell therapy to improve my hair quality. Where can I get a self-test kit to determine my specific hormone replacement needs? Are lotions and gels the preferred delivery system for bioidentical hormones due to transdermal absorption? Where can I buy them? Are placenta cell supplements safe and effective for hair thinning, and where can I find credible information on their use?

I am a 73-year-old woman experiencing minor bleeding after many years without periods. My culture test is normal, no infections, but the ultrasound result shows an abnormal endometrium (thickening and heterogeneous). What should I do next, and what are the potential outcomes?
