Pregnancy related query

My wife is 16 weeks pregnant. Since this morning, she has been experiencing mild heaviness and a pulling sensation in the lower vaginal area. Could you please advise what we should do? Is this something normal during pregnancy, or should we consult a doctor immediately?

Periods and pregnancy related issues

I had unprotected intercourse with my husband on March 16 for a few minutes, but ejaculation did not occur inside the vagina. Within about 8 hours, I took an emergency contraceptive pill (Unwanted 72). My last menstrual period started on March 3, and my cycle is usually regular (around 30 days). According to my ovulation tracker, ovulation was expected around March 19–21. On March 30, around 1 PM, I started experiencing abdominal pain, and then I noticed that my period had started. I had bleeding twice during the day, then again around 11 PM the same night. The next day, I had slight bleeding again around 8 AM. After that, there was no bright red bleeding. I only had a small amount of brown discharge once, and then everything stopped. The bleeding was not continuous and was lighter than my usual periods. I am concerned about: Whether this bleeding is normal after taking an emergency pill Whether this could be implantation bleeding Whether pregnancy is still possible in my case

Constant itching in vagina since 6 mnths

I've had a yeast infection (itching with white curdy discharge)last dec and I consulted a gynae who prescribed me suppository for a week after which discharge stopped but itching persisted. I again consulted the same doc and she took a swab and the result came to be positive for E fecalis and she again prescribed Ampicillin and I took a whole course of it. But still the itching persisted and this time discharge was also noticed but this time the discharge was smooth creamy cheese like in consistency for which I consulted another gynae who prescribed me the same set of antifungal suppository and I used it again and was relieved for like a week and the itching reappeared again but this time there was a very offensive odor and a peculiar discharge which does not seem to be fungal. I get itching which is severe ,not everytime but it appears for sometime and then disappears along with unpleasant odor. I suppose it is BV. I don't have energy to visit gynaec again pls help
