    Question

    my last period was 7 days long, heavy, with lots of clots and cramping. I've had brown spotting (as with the other cycles) from the last day of last period. I am sexually active. I also have a lot of itching on the outer lips of my vagina and bikini line.. What's wrong? Please help :-(

    Answer

    You are going to need to go to a clinic and get checked out. I am concerned that you might have an infection that needs treating.
