I recently attempted to skip my period for the first time using my combination pill and experienced breakthrough bleeding for three weeks. I stopped the pills and allowed my period to happen, then resumed taking them. I want to know if I am protected against pregnancy or if I should wait 7 days as if I am just starting again.

I'm worried I might be pregnant because my periods have been irregular. I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet and I'm scared of the results. I'm 16, on birth control (Nexplanon implant since June), and taking sertraline and adderall. I've also lost weight, experienced hair loss, and feel depressed and stressed. What should I do?

I have a question about my menstruation. My periods have been getting more painful over the last 3 years and I just finished one that was so painful I felt like I was in labor. I am sexually active but not on birth control. I took naproxen for the pain but it didn't help. I had a pelvic ultrasound recently in the ER due to severe pain, but they found nothing. What could be causing this pain and what should I do next?

I have a pink discharge with no pain, itching, or burning, but there is a noticeable odor like rotten fish. My last period was on October 12, and it is not regular. The pre-period blood is a little darker. When I urinate, the pink stuff is also in the water. What could this be?

I am 20 years old and haven't had a period in a year. My periods have always been irregular, and I'm not pregnant. What could be causing this, and what steps should I take to address it?
