I am concerned about my inability to get pregnant after having an abortion this year and being treated for chlamydia. I've been trying for three months now and have recently experienced vaginal itching. Do abortions, chlamydia, or vaginal itching affect fertility, and can I get a fertility test done before the 12-month mark if I pay out of pocket?

I am 23 years old and have been experiencing discomfort in my lower area for about 3 days. I am sexually active and have noticed tiny white clusters of bumps on my buttocks and three bumps on my vagina, which are painful and itchy. I am on birth control but not using any other medications. What could these symptoms indicate and what self-care remedies can I try?

I haven’t had a period for 3 months, and prior to this, I went 7 months without one. My gynecologist suggested birth control (BC) to help get a period, which worked for one month after stopping BC. Since then, I haven’t had a period, and my blood work is normal. My age is 24, and my ultrasound didn’t show anything abnormal. What could be causing this, and what should be my next steps?

I had heavy bleeding and a positive pregnancy test last month, followed by more heavy bleeding this month. I experienced severe cramping both times. Is there a way I can see a doctor before my scheduled appointment on the 18th, or should I wait and take another test?
