asked

I was experiencing itching inside my vagina, discomfort during sex, and a delayed period. I am on Nexplanon for four years and have always had two shorter periods a month. This month, I am waiting for the second period. I was diagnosed with a yeast infection and prescribed medication. I had an ultrasound and blood work, but no abnormalities were found. I also had a pap-smear, but the results are pending. I took a pregnancy test, which was negative. My questions are: What happened to my period? Does a yeast infection delay a menstrual cycle? Why am I experiencing discomfort/dryness during sex? Is Nexplanon good for five years, or is it three? Could my husband be causing the infections and discomfort?
