I have intense itching in the labia area, which comes and goes, especially after my period. The area feels sensitive and raw, but there is no visible redness or discharge. I have a Kyleena IUD and have been using the same tampons for a while. What could be causing this itching, and what should I do about it?

I’m romantically interested in a guy who gets a cold sore on his lip about once a year since he was a kid. I am concerned about asymptomatic shedding and whether I would have to worry about him giving me HSV1 at any moment.

I have been concerned about vaginismus for 10 years, unable to have penetrative intercourse or use a tampon, and have irregular periods. I am 29 years old and have not seen an OBGYN or tried any treatment. What can be done to address this issue?

I have been experiencing lower abdominal pain, lower back pain, pelvic pain, and pain during sex along with spotting after sex. I also had a fever and headache recently. My last menstrual period was on 09/16/2020 and it was 5 days late. I had a c-section in December 2019. What could be causing these symptoms and what tests should I undergo?
