Does vaginal pigmentation suggest herpes or genital warts?
Hello doctor,
I have two concerns. I have not had sex in over a month and I used a condom with a partner I have been on and off with over the last two years. I have never had any sores from him, and he never had a sore either. My concerns are: I have noticed this dark pigmentation in a few spots. There is no pain, burning, or itching. They do not appear to be raised. It is just a dark pigmentation. I did the vinegar test and they did not turn white. Although the vinegar really burned my vagina. A gynecologist I went to, did not comment about the dark pigmentations in two exams. I have this red area near my vaginal opening that is slightly irritated. I know that area has burned a lot with the vinegar, so not sure if it is burned from that. With both concerns do they look like herpes, genital warts, or STD? Please let me know and address all the questions thoroughly. Please also provide treatment options. My lab test shows no chlamydia, gonorrhea or trichomonas.

Does 2.6 beta hCG in delayed periods indicate pregnancy?
Hello doctor,
I missed the period last month. My LMP was two months before on the ninth day of the cycle I had protected sex after 10 days of the missed period I had UPT all negative. Yesterday (17 days after a missed period) I had a beta hCG test level is 2.6 also yesterday I got my period (47th day of cycle), but the flow is quite different. Yesterday I got dark brown bleeding, but today I am getting light red colored pinkish bleeding, but clots ate there, and bleeding has a high quantity of mucus. Is it normal? Is beta hCG 2.6 non-pregnant? Please help.

I had Diane-35 for 21 days for PCOS and irregular periods. When can I expect my period?
Hello doctor,
I have PCOS and irregular periods. My doctor prescribed me Diane-35 for 21 days. The last day of the pill was fifteen days before. I did not get my periods till date. I did a home pregnancy test, and it is negative. Though it is unlikely can I be pregnant? I wanted to know how long to wait for the periods to come with Diane-35? Please clarify.
