After having my son in 2006, I did not breastfeed and developed a cyst that was drained, causing my nipple to become inverted. This has persisted for seven years, and I still experience fluid discharge and a thick, unpleasant substance. I saw a doctor a long time ago, but they did not provide much help. I am 31 years old and this issue significantly affects my appearance. What should I do?

I haven’t had a full period since September due to several vaginal infections and bacterial overgrowths, including PID. I stopped antibiotics due to severe itching and discomfort. I experienced light spotting in January but haven’t had a proper period since. I'm worried about potential permanent damage and whether I might need a DNC. What should I do?

For three years, I've had two periods a month. Doctors have run all tests and everything is normal. This month, I had spotting four days ago but have not started my period. I've had cramps and all other symptoms of a period. How concerned should I be? Is this a sign of cancer? I've had my tubes tied for three years and have not had intercourse recently. Also, I have bacterial vaginosis and have not started antibiotics yet.

I am a 20-year-old female experiencing yellow runny vaginal discharge that itched a little and had a slight fishy smell before my period started. I also experienced bleeding after sex with my boyfriend. Could this be bacterial vaginosis (BV) or a sexually transmitted infection (STI)? What should I do about the bleeding after sex and could it be related to a cervical polyp?

I am having light spotting instead of a period for the last month now. I am not on birth control, and took a pregnancy test and it was negative. I'm not on any other medication. My periods are always very regular. Nothing else in my lifestyle has changed, and I'm married. I have no pain, tenderness, cramps, and feel normal. What could it be?
