I have had white discharge for the last 6-8 years. Is this something to be concerned about? The discharge has no odor while peeing but a slight smell in my underwear. It is very sticky, and my periods are regular, but I have noticed very little blood while wiping. My urine tests have been normal, and I am not sexually active. Could these reasons also be the cause of blood spotting? Is it normal for someone to have a yeast infection for years?

Is it normal to ovulate the day after your period stops? What could be the cause of this anomaly in an otherwise normal 28-day cycle, especially for a 41-year-old woman who is in tune with her body and has experienced pregnancy shortly after such an early ovulation?

I'm 25 years old and pregnant. I had sex with another guy the day before my last period started and took Plan B the next day. My period was a little longer than usual, likely due to Plan B. Now, I'm trying to figure out if there's a chance the baby could be from the other guy, as I had sex with my current boyfriend towards the end of my pregnancy. My fertile window was around July 30th to August 5th, with ovulation on the 4th. My doctor said the chances are very low because I had a period and took Plan B, but I wanted to confirm with someone else to ease my stress.

I am newly pregnant and want a c-section for my mental health, but I'm afraid my doctor will refuse because I don't have a medical reason. How can I approach this with my OB/GYN, and what are the considerations for elective c-sections?

I have been taking new birth control for 2 months and now one of my breasts is tender and painful. I’m wondering if it’s a side effect or can be a sign of a more serious issue. The pain comes and goes, is dull and achy, and sometimes feels like a pulled muscle. The breast is a little bigger in size than the other but has no lumps or redness. I am 39 years old and take Nextellis for birth control, Advil for pain, Vitamin D daily, and Xygal for allergies. Is this cause for alarm, and what can I do to ease the pain?
