I was vaccinated for HPV (Gardasil) when I was in high school, about 10 years ago. I had unprotected sex with someone who had HPV in high school (10-15 years ago) and he said he's never had symptoms since.

I just started using Xulane patches on the 4th of this month and have had my period for twenty days with heavy excessive bleeding and cramping. Should I be concerned and should I see a doctor?

I have a bump inside my private area (vagina) on my clitoris. It hurts to the touch. I am 33 years old, and the symptoms started yesterday. There is no itching or smell.

I took Plan B after having unprotected sex, and now I'm experiencing white discharge, itching, and slight cramps. Could this be related to the Plan B pill, and should I be concerned about pregnancy?
