I have genital herpes and haven't had an outbreak in 8 years. Recently, I experienced itching, soreness, swelling, and discharge, which took over 2 weeks to develop. I've been taking Valtrex and using ice, baths, and ibuprofen. Is it normal to have discharge with genital herpes, and could it be another STD despite my partner's recent negative tests for gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis?

I had a clump of bloody EWCM 3 days before ovulation. It was brown blood, and I've never experienced anything like it. I am 37 years old, have PCOS, and have had 2 very early miscarriages. My last pap test was about 3.5 years ago, and I had an abnormal pap about 15 years ago. I usually bleed for 3-4 days, and my cycles have been regular due to the Keto diet. What could this bleeding be, and should I be concerned about it?

I have a weird bump under my vagina opening. I'm 19 years old and experiencing itchiness. I was clean during my last pap test or pelvic exam. It could be herpes, but it doesn’t look like herpes. What could it be and what should I do?

What are your thoughts on an isolated EIF (Echogenic Intracardiac Focus) being found at a 20-week ultrasound? NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) at 10 weeks showed low risk for trisomies, and NT (Nuchal Translucency) testing at 11 weeks was normal (1.6mm). All other scans show normal growth and a healthy baby.
