I am 30 years old and had unprotected sex twice in one day. I took an emergency morning-after pill after the first incident, but the condom broke during the second incident. What should I do to ensure I do not get pregnant?

I'm having issues with a UTI. I started feeling symptoms on Wednesday evening and began antibiotics on Thursday afternoon. The symptoms have improved but are still present. I'm concerned if the antibiotics prescribed (Nitrofurantoin 100mg, 2x a day for 7 days) are the right choice and why they are taking longer to work. I also want to know what type of bacteria was found in my urine and if there's anything I can do about an inflamed urinary tract.

I want to use birth control pills or shots, but I've heard that it causes infertility. I am 30 years old and worried about this. Should I use it or not, and which option would be better considering potential side effects like weight gain and mood swings?

I have open sores on my vagina and a lump inside that wasn't there yesterday. The lump seems to be a reaction from using Monistat. The lump has been getting worse and it hurts. The soreness is not itchy and is the same color as the rest of my skin. I have been using Monistat for a short time and I am 18 years old. Is there anything else in my medical history the Doctor should know?

I accidentally inserted an external vaginal cream, meant for vaginal itching, internally. Should I use a douche or let my vagina get it out naturally?
