My ex partner told me he has Mycoplasma Genitalium. What type of doctor can test me for it? Can I call my primary care doctor? Or do I have to make an appointment with an OB/GYN?

I took Plan B 48 hours after sex a week ago and am experiencing symptoms such as potential spotting, a metallic taste in my mouth, drowsiness, and dark discharge instead of my expected period. The discharge is slimy, light, and odorless, and it comes and goes. My last period started on December 14 and ended on the 19th. What could these symptoms indicate, and what should I do?

I am experiencing brown discharge with a smell for the last 10 days and feel weak. The discharge is sticky but not too brown and smelly. My last period was from January 4 to January 9, and it is not regular, sometimes delayed by 4-5 days. I have irregular periods, facial hair on my chin, and have been under stressful conditions. I have mild pain sometimes in my abdomen and lower back. What could be causing this discharge, and what can I do about it?

I have a bump-like sore on my private part that appears mostly after my period and is painful when touched. It is located on my vaginal area and does not cause itchiness. I am 31 years old, not taking any medications, and have a history of using sanitary pads, shaving, and engaging in unprotected sex. What could this be and what self-care measures can I take?

I have PCOS and experience severe cramps not related to my period, which last about 10-20 minutes. My last period was on November 5 and comes regularly. I'm 32 years old and take ibuprofen 800mg. I had an IUD removal surgery in June of last year. The cramps started around a year ago and have worsened recently after my first sexual encounter in a year. I don't have pain or burning with urination, fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, or constipation. My STD and pap smear tests were negative last week. What could be causing these cramps and how can I manage the pain?

I’m having a jelly-like and light brown discharge. When did the discharge start? Has it been constant or does it come and go? Does the discharge have a noticeable odor? How would you describe its texture? When did your last period start and end? Does it come regularly? Is there any fishy or foul odor? Do you have any recent history of irregularity in periods in the last few months? Are you taking any hormone pills? May I know your age? Do you have any itching or burning? Any pain or cramps in the lower abdomen? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?
