I'm taking Susten 200mg tablets twice a day during my luteal phase, as my doctor recommended. It's supposed to be for 10 days, but after 8 days, I started bleeding. Does this mean I'm not pregnant?

I'm really worried because my husband has mentioned that he's not as interested in our intimacy anymore. I think my vagina might have become looser over time. Can you please give me some advice or suggest ways to help me tighten it? I'm looking for something effective, as I want to improve our relationship.

To tighten your vagina, try Kegel exercises (squeeze and release pelvic muscles for 10-15 reps, 3-4 times a day), pelvic floor physical therapy, or vaginal cones; also, consider incorporating estrogen-boosting foods, like soybeans and flaxseeds, into your diet, and maintain a healthy weight; however, it's essential to remember that vaginal looseness is a common issue, especially after childbirth or aging, and open communication with your partner about your concerns and feelings can also help address the emotional aspect of this issue.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I had protected sex with my boyfriend a couple of days before I was supposed to get my period, which was due on December 5th. It's now December 16th, and I'm late. A few days ago, I had some mild stomach pain and noticed light blood spots. Could this mean I'm pregnant, or is there another reason this might be happening?

Hey, I know this might sound a bit odd, but I'm concerned about the possibility of an ant getting inside the vagina. Could you let me know what the potential effects might be if that happened? I'm just a bit worried and would appreciate your advice on this.
