    1- Unusual discharge and/or pain
    You could have an STD, like chlamydia, herpes, or gonorrhea.

    2- Unexpected or heavy bleeding
    You could have fibroids or hormonal issues that need to be discussed.

    3- You think you're pregnant
    You'll need extra tests and a prenatal-vitamin prescription, or to discuss your options.

    4- You've had unprotected sex
    You need to be checked for STDs or possible pregnancy.

    5- Persistent bloating, with pelvic pressure and pain
    Individually, these can be symptoms of many things. But when they occur together consistently for two weeks or more and feel worse than routine tummy trouble, they may be signs of ovarian cancer.

    6- Severe menstrual pain
    You could have endometriosis, a common, treatable condition in which uterine tissue is found outside the uterus.

    7- If sex hurts
    You may have vulvodynia, which ispain in the vulva or entrance to the vagina.
