What causes pain while touching vagina?

Hello doctor,

I am an eighteen-year-old girl and I think something is wrong with my vagina. I feel pain everytime I touch it and I cannot have sexual intercourse because the pain is unbearable. Actually, I am a virgin and I am afraid I will never be able to have babies in my future because of this problem. I would be grateful if you suggest me a solution.

I have cyst-like bumps on my inner thighs and pubic area. This has been happening on and off for about five years, but I have been too embarrassed to talk to a doctor.

I took Trust pill within an hour of unprotected sex. What is the chance of getting pregnant?

Hello doctor,

My last menstruation period started on June 17 and ended around June 22. I had unprotected sex on July 5 where my partner came inside me because he could not withdraw. I took Trust pill ( Ethinyl Estradiol + Levonorgestrel + Ferrous Fumarate) as an emergency contraceptive around an hour after intercourse. I took four active pills. I also took Vitamin C after eating dinner at around 8:30 pm because I take it daily. Then I took the second dose of pills, another four active pills, 12 hours later. I immediately felt some side effects like feeling like I was going to vomit and nausea. But I managed to keep it down and slept. After waking up, I felt some side effects too like mild headaches and abdominal pains. But I started having stomachache that lead me to go to the bathroom a lot of times. Sometimes I excrete, sometimes I do not but feel to do so. My stool comes out in various forms.

Then on July 7th, I wake up with a more severe case of headache, nausea, and stomachache and I felt feverish. Then most of my stool comes out like in liquid form and in spurts. I did not take any medicine but just drank a sports drink to help keep me hydrated and make me sweat because I was not sweating normally that day. On July 8th, I still had a little bit of stomachache and headache but my stools are much more solid. Today, I feel much like the same as yesterday but with more stomach upsets than yesterday. I went to the bathroom and saw what appeared to be small white clumps with my stool which I assume are vaginal discharge. I am so worried about getting pregnant because we are not ready for that yet. Should I take another two doses of Trust pill as ECP? Is it safe? Or what should I do to avoid being pregnant at this point? I do not take the Vitamin C anymore after my stomach hurt because I worried that it reacted with the pill. Please help.

Missed my period for 4 months after taking contraceptive pills. Is there any possibility that I am pregnant?

Hello doctor,

I am a 21-year-old female. I have been in a physical relationship with my partner, and the very next day, I had a contraceptive pill. After a few days, I got withdrawal bleeding and after a month, I got my menstruation. The problem started after even two months I did not get menstruation. In the month of June, I tested for pregnancy as my belly seems little enlarge and have itching in my stomach. But the result came negative. It is today July 16, I have not got my periods yet. And may I know if the pregnancy kit works after four months of a sexual relationship?

I am having light brown spotting. Why?

Hello doctor,

I am a female aged 21 years. I started my period a month back. I currently do not know the length of my period but it varies from 24-29 days, my last period was 24 days. According to my period tracking apps my ovulation day is the 30th of June (if it’s going by the 24 days length). I started spotting light pink blood on the 30th (only there when I wipe) and from that I have been spotting light brown blood. What could cause this? I had sex on the 26,27 of June and the 2nd of July.
