My period is 10 days late, and I did a pregnancy test which was negative. I am 24 years old, have regular cycles, and have had unprotected sexual intercourse. I am not using any contraceptives or medications. What could be causing the delay, and should I wait for my period or seek further investigation?

I had unprotected sex and got my period a day later, but it's been over a month and my period is late. It normally comes around every 20 days, but it's been 29 days since my last period on March 5th. I'm 18 and not on any medications. My periods are always early and have never been regular. What could be causing the delay, and should I be concerned about pregnancy?

I am experiencing debilitating pain during my periods, including severe cramps that prevent movement, vomiting from the pain, and extreme hot and cold flashes. I take up to 1500mg of painkillers like Midol, Tylenol, and Ibuprofen, but they don't help. My periods are also irregular, sometimes starting 2.5 weeks apart, and I can't predict when they will occur. Is this normal, or is there something wrong that needs medical attention?

I have had a hormonal IUD for a year and a half. Two weeks ago after ovulation, I started spotting, and now my period is 3 days late. Could I be pregnant? I haven't missed a period on the IUD this whole year. Additionally, I have constant stomach pain, a feeling of fullness, and normal vaginal discharge. What could be causing these symptoms?

I have recurring bacterial vaginosis (BV) infections and recently tested positive for Ureaplasma. I have no sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and all other tests were negative. What is Ureaplasma, and should I be concerned about it in relation to my BV?
