I’m not sure if my bleeding is period bleeding. I am 15 days late according to my app tracker, and I took a Plan B pill.

I'm 79 years old and have been experiencing a burning pain in my left nipple for a few weeks. The pain comes and goes and is sharp like a pinch. I'm currently taking Fiorcet for back and neck pain, Lorazepam for panic disorder, Temazepam for sleep, and thyroid medication. I also have a bad bladder infection and am on antibiotics. There is redness on the side of my breast and slight pimple-like things on the side of my breast, which are not painful. The nipple is painful on touch, but there is no discharge. I've lost 24 lbs, and my breasts are very heavy, so I don't wear a bra at home. What could be causing this pain, and what should I do?

My daughter is 14 years old and has had only two periods in the span of 2 and 1/2 years, with her last period in February 2020. She has also experienced significant weight gain this past year. She is not using any contraceptives or medications, and there is no family history of thyroid issues or PCOS. Her breasts have developed, and she has hair in her armpits and genital area, but she has not grown in height over the past year. What could be causing her irregular periods and weight gain, and what tests should be conducted to determine the cause?
