If testing for various infections at 4 days past possible transmission was all negative and for HIV at 3 weeks and 2 days, and also negative, is a 6-week follow-up for STD testing even necessary? Can this be skipped if no symptoms have developed in the past 6 weeks?

I have a cluster of white bumps on my labia, a lot of them, and I am concerned. How long have you had the bumps? Have these been about the same, improving, or getting worse? Are the bumps itchy? What are all the medications you're currently using, either for the bumps or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I have a dark brownish blood discharge on the second week of my birth control pill pack. I have had spotting for the last 4 months starting on the second week of pill pack and continuing until my cycle begins. It has never been this color until about 4 days ago. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am pregnant and have a UTI. I am about 5 weeks pregnant and the UTI started a couple of days ago. I exercise daily and only take vitamins. I took an AZO UTI strip test which is positive for leukocytes and negative for nitrite. I need a safe antibiotic to treat the UTI while pregnant. Additionally, I tested positive for COVID-19 at home and am taking Tylenol. Will this harm my baby? Is Dove Sensitive Soap safe to use in the private area while pregnant? Can I eat peppermint candies to help with nausea during pregnancy?

I recently had trichomoniasis and was treated with a single dose. After using Lotrimin for itching on my labia, I experienced green frothy discharge again. I also had anal to vaginal sex during this encounter. Could it be a bacterial infection from that?

I have noticed a bump or two at the bottom of my butthole. I am 24 years old with an IUD and have had chlamydia before. What could this be and how can I manage it at home?
