I have a question about my period. I had my period for only one day this month, which is unusual for me as it usually lasts 6 days. My last period began on June 27th, and I am not using any contraceptives or medications. I am 25 years old and have been trying to conceive for 3 months. I have had a previous pregnancy but lost the baby. This month, my period lasted only a few hours and I have been experiencing stomach pains. I took a pregnancy test this morning, which was negative. Is this normal, and what should I do next?

I am a 21-year-old female experiencing a burning sensation and sharp, on-and-off stabbing pain in my right breast, which radiates down to my armpit and bicep. My periods are regular, and I have no other significant symptoms except for occasional stress and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). My aunt has breast cancer. What could be causing this pain, and should I be concerned about it being cancerous?

What would you recommend for a recurring yeast infection that has persisted for about 6 months, despite trying over-the-counter treatments like Monistat and Walgreens' equivalent, as well as a prescribed pill? I am 22 years old, on oral birth control, sexually active with one partner without the use of condoms, and have not had a recent Pap test or pelvic exam.

My period has been late for 6 days now. I had protected sex, no pregnancy symptoms, but I am experiencing cramps and lower back pain typical of my period. I have recently faced a family emergency causing stress, irregular sleep, and poor eating habits. What could be causing the delay and what steps can I take?
