I have somewhat of an odd situation. My
periods can last anywhere between 22-78
days (usually between 36-56), so needless
to say i'm very irregular. I'm 22 and
have had them since 12......
My bf recently went in me w/out a condom
(we use protection everytime but this
time). He was just in me once, pulled
right out and didnt come in me.
My last period was 51 days ago. Lately I
have had cramping for the past 2 weeks
with no period. Today I saw a thin line
of bright red blood on tissue when I wiped
but nothing since. Discharge has been
between yellow and creamy to totally dry
to somewhat sticky.
I'm not looking for be pregnant, i've
taken 5 hpt, yes 5, periodically since a
week after this happened, and all were
negative as of yesterday.
What could be wrong with me? I'm not sick
to my stomach, i'm not unusually tired,
i'm not craving foods, or other "regular"
symptoms.
Could I be pregnant? If not , what is
wrong with me?
Ps-i'm recently without health insurance,
I dont know what to do.....

Hey,
i was in your boat and had very irregular
periods. I first got mine when I was 11
and I had two a year until I was 13 at
which time I got maybe 4 or 5 a year.
When I was 18 I went to my family dr and
he put me on birth control which regulated
my periods I wasnt even sexually active at
the time. I went off of it when I met my
current husband and my periods are now
much more regular. 28 day cycle almost to
the day and thats without the pill. I
say you probably arent pregnant but go
talk to your Dr. To see what he/she can
do for you. It will be better for you in
the long run.

I disagree I have an irregular cycle like
you but yet I am 6-7 pregnant it is all
according to how often do u ovulate I
ovulate only 5 times a year sometimes four
it is hard to determine if you ovulate
unless you go to a professional

Thanks everyone for your advice/opinions.
I actually got my period yesterday-thank
god! I plan on going to planned
parenthood though to get checked out and
see if they can tell me what's wrong and
help me regulate my cycles until I can get
some insurance too. Thanks again!

Did you mean your cycles last 22 - 78 days
or your actual period? If you are
bleeding for that long you really need it
investigated by a professional, you may
have something like pcos or pid, both can
be treated.
When I started birth control pill (back
when I was 13) I was prescribed them by my
doctor and even then I had 4 different
brands before I found the right one, so
don't dismiss planned parenthood. In the
end I had to have the mini pill instead of
the regular pill.
