What effect can chlamydia have on a pregnancy test/pregnancy? Can it make the pregnancy undetected? I went in for a pregnancy test which came out negative, meanwhile I came up positive for chlamydia but it's been 2 months and no period. Can it be related?

I am 52 years old and have been experiencing irregular periods. My current period has been going for 16 days, and it starts gushing out every time I stand up and walk around. Is this normal, or should I see a doctor?

I can't figure out if I have a yeast infection or BV. It has been almost a month, and the over-the-counter treatments for yeast infections have not been working. I have a lot of discharge that didn't have a smell until a week ago, and now it does, along with some itching. How can I determine the cause of my symptoms, and what can I do in the meantime to alleviate them?

Hello, 11 weeks postpartum. My husband and I tried to get back into things and used some lube as directed. Since then, I have a rash, itchiness, and red/white spots. I’m not sure if it’s an allergic reaction or a yeast infection. The itchiness comes and goes, but at times is constant, and there is pain when I wipe. I have no known allergies and am 11 weeks postpartum from a vaginal delivery. I’ve had a yeast infection years ago and have sensitive skin all over. There are bumps present, red with whiteness on the top, some are tender/itchy. I’m not sure if the whiteness is that they’re filled with something. Additionally, I just noticed a lump in my groin on the left side only, which is tender to touch.

I recently got the Nexplanon birth control implant and am experiencing yeast infection symptoms (itchiness, discomfort, and pain) without discharge. This issue also occurred when I was on the mini pill. What could be causing this and is there a way to balance my pH levels to alleviate these symptoms?

I'm 18 years old and noticed abnormal vaginal discharge yesterday, which changed from clear with small white particles to yellow later in the day. My vagina is a little red and it's painful when I pee. I don't have abdominal pain, and my last menstrual cycle was in mid/late July. I'm sexually active with one consistent partner and have been screened for STDs before. I started over-the-counter yeast infection medication but developed a fever of 101.4 F, which reduced after treatment, but is now 101.2 F with consistent headaches. I also have a slight mucus buildup in my throat. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
