I’ve been experiencing a persistent, stable, and constant fishy odor from my vaginal area for about 3 months. I’ve tried using boric acid, which helps temporarily, but the odor returns. I am 19 years old, have no other medical conditions, and am not taking any medications. There is a small amount of thicker discharge, but no itching, burning, pain, swelling, changes in temperature, abdominal pain, or urinary issues. What could be causing this odor, and what can I do to resolve it?

I'm 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant and am experiencing some bleeding. I have not had bleeding before during this pregnancy, and everything has felt fine so far. I feel a bit bloated and full. I take no medications, exercise regularly 5-6 times per week, and commute by bicycle, totaling approximately 11 miles a day. This is my first pregnancy. Do you have any advice?

I'm having vaginal pain during sex with my partner. The pain started when he put his penis in me and has been declining since he took it out. The pain is dull and aches, feeling like sandpaper. My partner is 23 years old and is not using any medications. I have had four partners in the last 3-4 months and have not had an STD screen. What could be causing the pain and what should I do?

I have a rash on the inside of my vaginal lips that started Thursday morning. It's red, not itchy, but it hurts when my lips rub together and burns when urine hits them. I tried flavored lube and took Plan B recently. What could be causing this rash and how can I treat it?

My period is a week late, and I took a pregnancy test which was negative. I am not using any contraceptives or medications, and my last period began on September 5, 2021. I am 28 years old and have been experiencing occasional nausea. What could be causing the delay in my period?

I accidentally inserted a boric acid suppository into my urethra instead of my vagina. I am 37 years old and take levothyroxine 88 MCGs. It happened two hours ago. I am currently experiencing bleeding and pain when I urinate. Should I be concerned, and what should I do?
