My daughter had a positive pregnancy test and her HCG level was at 10. She took another test the next day and it went to 15. She had some cramping and bleeding before she took the first test. She is supposed to take another test tomorrow but we are wanting to know if the increase in the HCG level means she is still pregnant and not losing the baby.

I am 30 years old and trying to get pregnant. My period was from 22/3-25/3/12, stopped from 26/3-28/3, and then I had bleeding on 29/3 with a headache and fatigue. I have been married for 7 years and have had negative pregnancy tests before. What could be causing the irregular bleeding, and what steps should I take to improve my chances of getting pregnant?

A condom broke, and I need to prevent pregnancy as soon as possible. I took Postinor 2 within two hours of the incident, and I am 18 years old with PCOS. My last period started on April 4 and ended about 7 days later. I had sex and the condom broke on April 25. My menstrual cycles are irregular due to PCOS, sometimes being a week or two late, but usually not more than 40 days. This was the first time I took an emergency contraceptive pill. What are the chances of pregnancy, and is there anything else I should know?

What does 'varicosities of infundibulopelvic ligaments' mean, and what would be the follow-up for someone with ovarian cysts, especially if they are menopausal and have never had children, but are a breast cancer survivor?

I am 21 years old and experiencing itching inside my vagina with a little smell. My last pelvic exam was in June 24 of last year, and the result was acute vaginitis. I also have a history of cervicitis. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to alleviate them?

I just got off my period a week ago and finished my spotting, but now I'm getting brown discharge. I am sexually active but use condoms. I took a pregnancy test which was negative. The discharge started yesterday and is quite noticeable, especially when I use the restroom. It feels like I'm in my period again but it's just brown discharge mixed with regular clear discharge. The discharge is creamy and has a normal odor. My last period started on June 29th and ended around July 4th or 5th. I have low iron and a family history of ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer. What could be causing this brown discharge?
