I'm a bit concerned because I've been noticing this yellow liquid discharge for about a month now. It varies between being thick and light, but there's no pain involved. Could you help me understand what's going on or suggest what I should do?

Anxiety can indeed cause physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat and palpitations. However, in most cases, anxiety-related heart symptoms are not a sign of underlying heart disease. Nevertheless, chronic anxiety can increase cardiovascular risk factors over time, such as high blood pressure and heart rate. But sudden cardiac arrest or heart attack due to anxiety alone is rare. To alleviate concerns, consider consulting a cardiologist and a mental health professional. They can help you manage anxiety and monitor cardiovascular health.

I'm a bit worried. I had protected sex yesterday and just to be extra sure, I took a pregnancy test today which came back negative. But then, I got my period later, though it was a little late. Do I need to take another pregnancy test, or should I be concerned about getting pregnant? I really don't want to be pregnant right now. Can you help me figure this out?

It's reassuring that the pregnancy test came back negative, especially since you got your period, even if it was a bit late. Delayed periods can sometimes happen due to stress, hormonal changes, or other factors. Since you had protected sex and the test is negative, there's no need to worry about pregnancy at this point, but if you're still concerned, you can repeat the test or consult with your doctor for further peace of mind.

I've been really concerned since my partner started taking cerazette for birth control. She's had this persistent lower abdomen pain that's off and on but it's definitely noticeable. It's been a month now, and not only is she experiencing a lot of pain, but also there's spotting and she hasn't gotten her regular period. Is this normal? The pain really seems like too much for her to go about her usual day. Can you advise on what might be happening or what we should do next?
