Why am I spotting and bleeding after ovulation? I'm 21 years old, my last period was June 15-20th, and I started spotting on July 11th. I have gained some weight recently but no stress. The bleeding was somewhat heavy for two days but only when I wiped, and it went from spotting to bleeding back to spotting in the same day. I also have breast tenderness and light cramping on the left side. I was hoping I was pregnant because that is my goal, and I had sex during ovulation. Could this be implantation bleeding, or is it a hormonal imbalance?

I tested positive on two pregnancy tests last weekend, but I've been experiencing brown blood for a few days followed by red bleeding and cramping. An ultrasound showed no sac. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?

I had a transvaginal ultrasound exactly 1 week ago to determine the due date and was told everything looked great. When I began to bleed yesterday, I called the MD and was told that as long as the blood was not bright red and I was not cramping, I should not worry. Today, I had some mild cramping followed by several large blood clots, along with tissue, and what looks like afterbirth. I have an appointment tomorrow with my MD, and since this is my first miscarriage, I was wondering what will be done during that appointment? The nurse I spoke to at my MD office did not provide me with much information.

I've been experiencing irregular bleeding for the past 10 days, with periods that last for half a day to 2 days, stop for a day, then start again. This is the first time I've had this issue. My last period started on December 21st, and I generally get my periods every 5 weeks. I had a steroid injection 2 weeks ago for carpal tunnel syndrome but no relief. Is this normal, and what could be the cause?

Why do women have darker pubic areas and inner thighs, and is there any treatment to lighten these areas? Additionally, how can pubic acne/boils be treated, and is it normal to have both darkening skin and acne in the pubic area? Lastly, how can vaginal odor be managed?

Is it normal for a menopausal woman to have vaginal bleeding for about a month, which is stable, at the age of 58, especially if her sister had bladder cancer?
