    can anyone help?

    Hi, here is my current situation. I am 19 years old and haven't had sex in a month or longer. I had a negative pregnancy test January 7th (not because I thought I was, but before getting an MRI). I am on birth control and was set to get my period January 18th. I had some bleeding on that day and sort of the next, but not what I am used to getting for my period. Since then, not sure exactly when, I have started having strange symptoms: bloated stomach, pain/aches in my lower abdomen, sometimes going around to my back and the tops of the back of my legs, and some slight red discharge.
    I'm about 95% sure I am not pregnant, and I haven't had any nausea or sensitive breasts or anything, but what do you all think? I have been researching things and it seems like it could be ovarian cysts? but I just want some opinions because I am terrified of being pregnant. Thanks

    It doesn't sound that you are pregnant but it does sound that there is something wrong.

    Our bodies warn us when there is a problem and we "have to" listen to it.

    Please go and see your Doctor, another scenario could be an STD, or an STI for instance.

    And, also, another scenario is it could be IBS, which does create bloating and pain but legs? Not that I know off.

      iv had those same symptoms for the last 3 months and mine is an ovarian cyst, so please go in and get checked hopefully its one that can be takin care of, but get it checked out soon i waited and now im off work for 2 weeks about to have surgery, if the doc tells you not to worry or blows you off push the issue until he does a full exam
