I know the first thing everyone will tell me is to see a doctor, but I'm not covered under insurance right now and can't afford to go. And there's not a place I can go to get help with paying the bill. I've been trying to research different possibilities as to why I have the issues I have, but I'm not a Google Search Goddess lol.
Anyways, I am 22 years old. I've been sexually active since I was 17, and have had 3 partners. About 3 years ago I was told by my doctor I have a tilted uterus. That was the last time I'd gotten an exam, so I know I'm over due on a check up, but besides that I was never told I had anything abnormal wrong with me. I've always had an irregular period until I got on birth control when I was 17 and stopped taking it about 2 years ago. My periods stayed normal up until last February(2011) when they started coming whenever. I usually only have a period for 5 days, but any more when I do have one it's at least 2 weeks. Last September I had one that lasted 28 days. I had been trying to get pregnant, so the long periods had me worried and I called the Health Department. They were rude to me and didn't care that I was trying to get pregnant and having such abnormal periods. My periods now last between 2-3 weeks.
Also, it seems like every single time I had sex, no matter how easy or rough it is, I will bleed afterwards. It's like having sex forces me into a period. And I usually do bleed for a few days. It makes having sex not enjoyable at all to have to deal with that. I'm just looking for what others may think is wrong. I'm waiting for my current bleeding cycle to be over and I'm going to call my doctor and try to get something figured out so I can get a check up, but that could still be a few days or weeks with how my luck has been with bleeding.
I would greatly appreciate no one bashing me for being 22 and trying to have a baby. I am engaged, and we've been together over 4 years. It's our choice is we want to have a baby or not and we don't deserve any ugly remarks. Thanks!
