    Help! Panicking!

    So I have been getting my period since I was 12, never had a problem, always regular, on time, etc. I was on the NuvaRing for about a year and stopped it last November. I started losing weight and feeling healthier and happier. July 1st I had my period and it was normal,which was lasting about 6 days, August 1st I got my period and it was gone the next morning when I got up and I have not had a period since then. I have taken 3 pregnancy tests and they all came back negative immediately. Now I have a near constant discharge and some very, very slight itching. The discharge is not like cottage cheese but very thin and clear. I have never had a problem like this before so I do not know what it could be but it is starting to worry me. It is really nearly impossible for me to be pregnant, and I am under ALOT of stress, but I just feel that going this long without even spotting is not normal. I did have some burning with urination and it had a very strong smell but that went away and now it is just the discharge. I don't know what to do and do not have health insurance to see a doctor. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Is there a planned parenthood in your community? Or a community clinic. You could have a bacterial infection. Have you been screened for STDs? You really should see a doctor if there is discharge, itching, etc.

      Okay, so that sounds like BV (Bacterial Vaginosis). BV is not a STD. But its a pain in the ***. Now for the non existant peiods, that is most likely due to stress. If the period is missing for 3mnts in a row, then its time to see a dr. It sounds like you are FINE, besides the BV, bv causes you to have slimey discharge with a strong odor, and also pain full urination. Go to WebMd.com and look it up, expecially if you arent at risk for a STD. But who knows, dont exclude anything at this point. Best thing to do is see a doctor. Good Luck though expecially if its BV..UGH
