My wife is experiencing lower left abdominal pain and sporadic vaginal bleeding that is unlike her period. She has a history of two miscarriages and lifted something heavy earlier, which exacerbated the pain. The pain is sharp and has been on and off, reaching up to a 7/10 intensity. She also experiences nausea and bloating but no changes in stool. She is not currently pregnant, is 26 years old, and has no history of ovarian cysts. The pain has been consistent and she has been having more blood clots in her flow, with the pain moving from the left to the right and back again. What could be causing these symptoms and what should we do?

I had oral and vaginal sex using a condom 4 nights ago and 2 nights ago. I have a mild sore throat and vaginal irritation today, but I'm not sure if it's related. My partner had no visible sores, and we used a condom for less than 15 minutes each night. I am also on Truvada PrEP. My partner tested negative for herpes in January. What are my chances of having herpes, and what should I do about my current symptoms?

I have a recurring posterior fourchette issue that started a few years ago, possibly related to a change in birth control pills. The tear is almost always present, causing initial pain during intercourse, and sometimes results in further tearing. I've tried estrogen cream and changing birth control pills, but the issue persists. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I finished my period on the 21st of April and am due for my next one on the 17th of May. I noticed I am bleeding, which has gradually moved from a brown color to more of a red one. I have been cramping but they are subtle, and I regularly urinate normally and haven't noticed more urination than normal. What is this? Am I pregnant?

What does a positive EIA syphilis antibody test with negative RPR and TPPA results mean, and is the exposure scenario in January 2023 a risk for HIV?

I am experiencing itching and burning in the vaginal area, and I am very concerned about having herpes. My last period was from November 14-17, and my cycle is regular at 28 days. I had unprotected sex in May and haven't had sex since then. Can you help me understand what might be causing these symptoms?
