I have small white canker sore-type ulcers on my clitoris. I noticed them after using a spin bike at the gym, which caused extreme sensitivity. There is a bit of a smell, and the area is worse despite not being touched for months. I am a menopausal 53-year-old with no other medical history in that area. What could this be and how should it be treated?

I am a week late on my period and started bleeding yesterday, but it seems abnormal with larger, thicker blood clots. My periods are usually regular, and I have had my tubes tied for 7 years. Should I be worried about this irregularity?

I am 38 years old and plan to have another child within the next year. I am healthy and fit, but I am concerned about the possibility of developing blood clots due to my sister's experience of developing a clot during her pregnancy at 37. Could this be hereditary, and should I be on blood thinners if I become pregnant since I am older and have a family history?

I gave birth on February 5th and am breastfeeding full time, with frequent milk expression. I had my period 6 weeks after birth and now have light brown discharge. I also have a headache, light stomach pain, and nausea. I took a pregnancy test, which was negative. I'm concerned if this could be old blood, implantation discharge, or something else. Can anyone help?

My wife had a hysterectomy. She is stating I am the cause of it because I gave her Gardnerella vaginosis and Ureaplasma urealyticum. How do I get tested for these? Could these be a reason for a complete hysterectomy?
