I went to the ER due to spotting during sex and now feel very sick, including symptoms like lethargy, nausea, dizziness, lightheadedness, tiredness, headache, muscle aches, and difficulty eating or drinking. I'm not spotting anymore but am concerned if I should go back to the ER. What should I do?

I am currently 14 weeks pregnant with my second child and have been using progesterone suppositories for a week. My doctor offered a preventative cerclage, but warned it might cause contractions that don't stop. Should I continue with the progesterone suppositories or opt for the cerclage? My first pregnancy had spontaneous contractions and cervical funneling at 21 weeks, which required an emergency cerclage and strict bed rest.

I have small white-colored bumps on my vulva. I am 24 years old and experiencing painful symptoms. These bumps appear every month and last for 3-4 days. I also have excessive thick milky white discharge during intercourse. What could be the cause of these bumps, and what should I do for treatment?

I found a lump on the outer layer of my vagina. It appeared overnight, is about the size of a Lima bean, and is sore with a few specks of blood when squeezed. It's not itchy, the same color as my skin, and doesn't hurt when not touched. I'm 35 years old, not on any medications, and have a family history of cancer. What could this lump be, and what should I do?

I am currently 2 months pregnant and will see my new doctor in a few weeks. Before that, I wanted to know if there is any possibility of getting a blood test order from a doctor online, specifically for the test called “harmony + FS + SCAP”, to determine the gender of my baby in early weeks. I use 450 mg of Lemoctal, take prenatal vitamins, and have epilepsy.

I had unprotected sex with an HSV2 positive partner 10 days ago. He did not disclose his status until after the encounter but assured me he rarely gets outbreaks and takes antivirals when he feels symptoms. I have not shown any symptoms except for a brief tingling sensation in my thighs that lasted only a few minutes. Is it less likely that I may have caught HSV2 based on his situation and my lack of symptoms so far? Additionally, I am experiencing an increase in white, odorless discharge, which I suspect might be related to the emergency morning-after pill I took two weeks ago. Could this discharge be due to the pill, and if I do not see any noticeable symptoms by the end of 14 days, should I consider myself in the clear?
