Hi girls! I'm new here. I'm a little nervous as this is my first baby website that I've actually had the nerve to sign up for and post in! Here's a little background about me:
I'm currently 22 years old, and NTNP. I've been with my boyfriend for a little while, and recently I've been wondering if I can even get pregnant.
I started my period when I was 14 years old, and ever since - I haven't been regular. It's nothing for me to go 6, 7, 8 months without one. Since 2012, I had one in February, one in October, and then in 2013 I've had one in February, and a "period" this month. (I'll explain why I put quotes around period in a second..)
I have been to a doctor, and explained my situation. They drew my blood and said everything checked out, but I'm not quite sure what tests they ran or what exactly they were looking for. The doctor did give me a pill to see if it would "jump start" my period. I researched it, and I can't exactly remember what it was called - but it said that the period you get with this pill is actually more of a withdrawl bleed. They also told me I don't look like a typical PCOS case, so they didn't really give me too much information. I recently bought some multi-vitamins, and was wondering if this helped anybody? Or what I could possibly do to regulate myself?
So, back to my "period" story. This month, I started "bleeding" on March 18th. When I first wiped, it was brown as usual so I figured that I'd be getting my period, no big deal. However, next time I went to the bathroom - there was nothing. No bleeding, nothing when I wiped - so I started to get a little curious. Later on that night, I went to the bathroom, and there was a little more brown blood in my discharge. Well, over the next few days it continued like this...switching from brown to pink, but never actually bleeding like a period. I'd say on the fourth or fifth day, I actually started bleeding...but it was different. Very light with a few clots. (Sorry if that's TMI!) And usually with my periods, I only bleed for about 5 days, but this time I did for about 9. So, I was wondering if any of you other ladies had been through anything like this? Could this have been a possible miscarriage? I had back cramps like CRAZY and a few abdominal cramps, but nothing that would send me to the emergency room.
If any of you ladies could help me, I would greatly appreciate it!! I know this post was kind of long, but I couldn't think of anyway to shorten it. Sorry.
Hope everyone is doing well.
