My entire mid-section from my navel to my vagina is feeling crampy, similar to period cramps, despite being menopausal for fifteen years. My vaginal area feels burning, and there is a sharp pain in my sides through the pelvic area occasionally. My vagina is always filled with discharge, and it has stretched, causing a lack of sex drive. I have been to various doctors, and all tests are negative. My husband suspects infidelity due to the constant discharge. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

My 50-year-old girlfriend has had two periods in the last year, the last one about four months ago. Do we need to be concerned about her getting pregnant? If so, when will it be safe for her?

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?
