Q: C-Section complications

I am 32 and the mother of 3 kids, all born via c-section. On my 3d c-section I had some things happen that weren't like the other recoveries. The post pardom bleeding stopped less then a week after my c-section then came back in full force. Something didn't feel or seem right about the bleeding since it had stopped so I went to see the doctor. He prescribed me some pills to "help" and said if it didn't help to stop the bleeding he would need to do a DNC? Nothing was really explained to me about what was going on and now I wish I had asked a lot more questions.

Months later up until now, things feel different then before I had my son. I feel like I have to pee all the time regardless of how much/little I drink (I mostly drink water all day long too). At least once an hour. It's almost as if something is pushing on my bladder. My periods were also strange after my last c-section. There is no mucus with my period blood anymore. It's almost as if I am bleeding blood during my minstrel period. It's very dry and dark red with no ...mucus is all I can think. Along with other little things that just don't feel "right". I have talked about every issue I have had for the last 3 years since my c-section to my doctor but I feel like he thinks I am insane and then doesn't really help me much.

Recently I have been trying to get pregnant so I went off my b.c. Since trying I have noticed odd things about my period. I spot on 1 trip to the bathroom making me think my period has started (not pregnant) but then cleared right up like it never happened. Then about 2 days later I start my period but its full of large clots. Not even quarter sized, they are very long stringy clots of blood. This of course is not normal for me. I am now going on my 4th month of trying to get pregnant and my 3d period thats been really abnormal like this.

I guess my question is, could something have gone wrong during my surgery that would cause me to be going through this now? Issues getting pregnant, odd periods after going off B.C.?
