Is there a reason why I get pimples around my genital area, usually around the lip of my vulva, once a month or so after I got pregnant? I'm 25 weeks now. It sometimes pops when I wipe and I'm afraid of infection. Should I be concerned or what can I do to prevent it?

I have had vaginal discharge since I was very young, and I am 17 now. The discharge is yellow, has an odor, and is very discomforting. I am not sexually active but have a boyfriend and am planning to be. I had a treatment as a baby for a closed hymen, which failed, and the doctor said it would cure when I grew up and had sex. I wonder if this is why I have discharge and if having sex will change it. What can I do to stop this?

I take Levlen ED as my birth control pill. I missed one active tablet 15 days ago and took it the next day, followed by starting a new packet of active pills by skipping the sugar pills. I am currently experiencing breakthrough bleeding and spotting. What could cause this, and should I be concerned about my birth control pill failing?

I have two bumps on my labia majora that are white as if skin was taken off. I noticed them last week while taking a shower. I have not had sexual interaction since December and the bumps are only itchy when sweaty. I am 29 years old, have a history of STDs (Trich, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea), currently have an IUD, and have a history of migraines and asthma. What could these bumps be and what should I do?

I am supposed to start my period on the 16th, but it is the evening of the 2nd, and I am about to go on a two-week holiday abroad. Is there any way I can postpone my period?
