Q: Help Please

This is my first time posting .. This is long but please read
thank you.

The past few weeks have been really weird and I was hoping someone could help me out.

~well my last period was on december 27, 2005 and I have 24 day cycles.
On january 7th & 8th I had unprotected sex.
Around the 12th and everyday after that I had lower abdominal discomfort, sometimes one-sided. Nothing that was painful, just weird feeling.
Then on the 16th I wiped what looked like a light brown discharge.
The 17th- nothing happened just the weird discomfort
the 18th- I started getting abnormal bowel movements, like I felt like I always had to go. And I was either constipated or had diaria. I also got light pink spotting and when I wiped there was a red streak
the 19th- I was had no energy and there was a drop of blood in my urine and I thought it was my period so I put a tampon in. And when I took it out there was nothing on it except some light pink and light red spots. And I couldn’t eat anything without feeling queasy.
The 20th- there was no spotting or blood all day. So I went to sleep and woke up in the middle of the night and had these shooting pains going from my back to legs to lower abdomen. It wasn’t really painful more of an uncomfortable feeling.
The 21st- I went to the bathroom in the morning and blood was coming out. It was normal but bright red. It looked fresh. And it would bleed on and off with long maroon looking clots
the 22nd- the bright red bleeding continued then stopped in the afternoon, then spotted in the evening
the 23rd- bled some throughout the day (bright red) and had abdominal cramping. Also had dark nipples and sore breast
the 24th (today)- light light bleeding bright red with some tiny bit of brown, cramps in tummy.

All of my bleeding was bright red and not enough to fill a pad throughout the day
i really don’t know whats going on. I feel lousy all the time.

Thanks

I'm not sure either. It sounds like you might want to go see a doctor immediately to rule out a possible miscarriage.

If you have 24 days cycles then you were due to start your period on jan.20. Sounds like a period to me. Odds are that you would not have that much blood if you were pregnant. But if you still think you are..Take a test

Yeah I would say at first when I was reading it sounded like implantation bleeding. But since you keept bleeding and the pains continued then I would go to the doc get a urine and blood test done and an ultra sound to see whats going on.

The pain stopped before the bleeding bleeding.. It was only there when I was spotting and those shooting pains one time in the day when I started bleeding
