I was wondering about a weird period. My last period began on the 5th to the 7th of July. I am not using any contraceptives or medications, I am 22 years old, and my doctor suspected an early miscarriage a few months back. My periods are usually 4-5 days long and come every 25 days, but this period was shorter, light, and brown blood, which is unusual for me. This period also came a few days early, approximately 21 days after the last one. Is it possible to have bleeding like this if pregnant, and are hormone imbalances easy enough to fix?

What can I do to treat vaginal odor and excessive discharge with a weird smell, especially after experiencing a vaginal yeast infection last year?

I am 19 weeks pregnant with my second child and am torn between a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) and a repeat C-section. My first delivery was a planned C-section due to a morbid fear of childbirth, which I now realize could have been addressed with counseling. My OB says it's my choice, but she was negative about C-sections. I'm concerned about the risks of both procedures, particularly the difficulty in placing the spinal during my first C-section and my rare blood type (O negative). I want to avoid an emergency C-section, but I'm also open to the idea of a VBAC this time. How do I weigh the risks and make a decision?

Can taking spironolactone cause a false reading on a pregnancy test, specifically a serum qualitative blood pregnancy test? Also, how reliable are pregnancy tests? I had sex in January, took Plan B, and have had two small bleedings during my sugar pill week. I've taken multiple home pregnancy tests (HPT) and had both urine and blood tests at the doctor, all of which were negative. I am taking spironolactone and want to ease my mind about potential pregnancy.

I have irregular menstrual cycles with heavy bleeding, blood clots, and spotting after intercourse. I am 35 years old, have hypertension, and have lost 20 lbs in the last year. What could be causing these symptoms and what tests should I undergo?

I have bumps on my vagina that have been present for about 2 months. They are not itchy or a different color from my skin. I have had chlamydia before and sometimes experience vaginal itching. Could these bumps be herpes, molluscum contagiosum, or another condition? How can I determine the cause and get rid of them?
