I’m experiencing discomfort and mild itchiness in the vaginal area for a few weeks. I’ve tried over-the-counter yeast infection treatments like Monistat and a cream starting with 'Mio,' but the symptoms persist. I’m unsure if it’s a yeast infection or something else, like bacterial vaginosis (BV), and I’m concerned it could be an STD. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I had unprotected sex and got my period a week later, but did not get my next period. Is it possible to be pregnant?

I had sex on May 31st, took Plan B the same day, and then got my full period 4 days later. However, I didn't get my period for the whole month of July and have no signs of pregnancy. What could be the cause of this and can I be sure I'm not pregnant?

I am experiencing irregular periods for the past 8 months, which started after migrating from India to Canada. I am 18 years old, not overweight, and do not use contraceptives. My last period started on January 7, 2023. I have not undergone any tests or examinations, and I do not take any hormone pills. What could be causing my irregular periods, and what steps should I take?

I had a full laparoscopic hysterectomy in July 2022 due to endometrial cancer, diagnosed as Stage 1A, Grade 1. I had a clear 6-week check-up and recent pelvic ultrasound and transvaginal exam. However, I experienced light spotting tonight, five months post-surgery. Could this be a sign of recurrence, and what should I do?

I had a yeast infection and was prescribed Fluconazole and Metronidazole. My symptoms have resolved, but I am concerned if the infection is still present. Should I abstain from sex until after completing the medication?
