I've been going through something a bit strange lately and just wanted to ask for some advice. So, I've been feeling this odd sensation in my vagina for the last few days. Initially, it was really itchy and I thought it might be a rash, but there wasn't any. And I know I don't have any STIs, so I figured maybe I had a yeast infection because, honestly, my hygiene hasn't been top-notch recently. But now the itching has stopped, which is good, but it still feels like there's something in there. It doesn't hurt or burn, and there's no bad smell or weird discharge, which is a bit confusing. It's not really affecting my daily life, but I'm kind of curious and a little worried about what it might be. Could this still be a yeast infection or do you think it's something else?

I'm worried about the side effects of taking birth control pills. How long after taking them can I find out if I'm pregnant?

Common adverse effects of contraceptive pills include nausea, breast tenderness, mood changes, weight gain, and increased risk of blood clots, stroke, and high blood pressure; to confirm pregnancy, a home pregnancy test (HPT) can detect hCG hormone levels 7-10 days after conception, with accuracy increasing 2-3 days after a missed period, while a blood test can detect pregnancy 6-8 days after conception.

I'm on my 14th day after IUI and I've been taking progesterone tablets. I've noticed some white discharge. Could this be a sign of my period or maybe pregnancy? I'm wondering when I should take a pregnancy test.

The white discharge you are experiencing could be a symptom of early pregnancy. It is common to have an increase in vaginal discharge during pregnancy. To confirm whether you are pregnant or not, you can take a pregnancy test. It is recommended to wait at least 14 days after the IUI procedure before taking a pregnancy test for accurate results.

Did I miscarry or is it my period?

You know how long and heavy your typical period is. During a miscarriage, bleeding gets heavier and lasts longer than a period. As your cervix starts to dilate, cramping may become more painful than typical period cramping.
