How can I tell the difference between implantation bleeding and breakthrough bleeding on birth control? I have had brownish discharge in a very small amount for two days now. I very rarely have breakthrough bleeding on my birth control pills. I have been on Minastrin 24 Fe for nearly 9 years. I usually take my pills continuously to avoid periods, but I did decide to have a withdrawal bleed a couple of weeks ago. I was back on active pills for a whole week before having sex. What is going on?

I have a vaginal pH of over 7 and the medicine my OB gave me (DIFLUCAN) isn't working. I am experiencing symptoms such as itching and burning. What could be the issue and what should I do?

I have a lump on the left side between my butt and vagina. It doesn't hurt, but I'm scared it might be cancer. Should I be concerned?

I didn't know I was pregnant and I was exposed to furniture glue all day in my house. I was in the beginning of the 3rd week of pregnancy. Is there any harm to the fetus at this early stage, especially since the glue was very strong and I also work in a hair salon where I was exposed to perm smell last week?

I am worried about my progesterone level. I am 35 years old and recently got engaged, trying to conceive. I went to urgent care, and they checked my progesterone level, which was below 0.5. I was on my second day of my period when the test was taken. I also have concerns about uterine thickening and my estrogen level, which was 192.5 on my menstrual cycle. Additionally, my fiancé was diagnosed with syphilis, and I tested negative but was treated as a precaution. I am anxious about the test results and the possibility of a false negative.
