I have an IUD (Liletta) that has been in place for 4 years. Recently, I've been experiencing prolonged bleeding for 3 weeks, frequent spotting, and today I started bleeding more with mild cramps. My IUD was noted to be lower than where it should be during my last OB/GYN visit in November. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I would like to know if I have PCOS. I'm 28 years old, not taking any medications, and used to take a generic for Celexa to treat depression/anxiety, but haven't taken it in 6-7 months. I sometimes feel it's hard to lose weight despite exercising and have low energy despite getting enough sleep. What could this be and what should I do?

I have high blood pressure during pregnancy and my symptoms include vision loss, shortness of breath, and headaches. My doctors are not prescribing medication to lower my blood pressure, and I'm concerned about the physical risks. Is it safe to get medication for high blood pressure, and what are the risks associated with taking Labetalol?

My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex on August 26th, and her period was supposed to start on August 29th. She is now 3 days late, and she can be irregular sometimes. I am wondering if she might be pregnant, considering she has had three miscarriages before and might have a harder time conceiving. She has tender breasts, mild cramps, and has been more sleepy, but no morning sickness. She vomited once after eating, but feels better now. She is not on any regular medications.
