I'm a smoking alcoholic concerned about a possible pregnancy due to an inconclusive pregnancy test. I had the implanon removed in October and haven't had a period since. I'm feeling unwell, my breasts hurt, and I've been sleeping excessively. I'm in counseling and booked for detox on Monday. Is it possible to get a pregnancy test delivered tonight, or should I wait until tomorrow to find an open doctor?

I am experiencing an ache in my vagina, similar to the feeling after childbirth but less severe. The ache comes and goes, starting off more painful but infrequent, and now occurring more often but less painful. The ache is lower than the abdomen, near the birth canal, and is not sensitive. My periods are regular, with normal bleeding, and I have no spotting in between. I have never been diagnosed with fibroids and have had normal pap smears since a laser treatment for pre-cancer cells and polyps/wart virus when I was 19. What could be causing this ache, and what should I do?

I'm worried I could be pregnant. I'm 21, my last period started on August 17, and I replaced my Nuvaring on the 21st. I had unprotected sex on August 19. My periods are regular, but I've been experiencing cramps and nausea lately, which I've never had while on the ring before. What could be the reason for these symptoms now?

I'm 54 and in menopause, experiencing extremely painful sex due to severe vaginal dryness, itchiness, and burning. I thought it was a yeast infection and used an over-the-counter cream, which worked temporarily but the condition returned. How can I address this issue to improve my sex life?

I have inner labia swelling, green cottage cheese discharge, horrible pain and burning, and my vulva is very uncomfortable. I tested positive for chlamydia 3 weeks ago, got treated 2 weeks ago, and abstained from sex until after treatment. After unprotected sex, I experienced sudden soreness and developed green discharge, pain, burning, and swelling. I'm currently on vacation outside my city and wondering if there is any over-the-counter medication to lessen my symptoms. One of my inner lips is so swollen that it's painful to walk. Is the situation serious enough to go to an urgent care?
