I'm Sara, 18. And I have always had irregular periods. I got my first period when I was 13 but at age 14 I went to the doctor n found out I had ovarian cysts n so he put me on Yaz birth control to reduce the amount of cyst I had. I was then taken off of Yaz n put on the depo shot cuz Yaz wasnt working for me n I had gained alot of weight from the depo shot n soon taken off the depo shot cuz it just made the cysts worse n so I was put on Loestren birth control n my medicaid/insurance expired cuz i turned 18 so I had to be taken off Loestren birth control n put on a cheaper birth control I could afford n anywho my periods have been irregular n I would have my periods for a week, less than a week or more than a month n then not have my periods for 3-4 months so basically I wouldnt know when my periods would come or go but recently I've been having some really painful cramps n I usually never have cramps n Ive been having headaches n lower back pains n be lightheaded outta no where n been on my period for 2 months now n idk whats going on..I never had a period like this cuz its really heavy. Heavy to where I have to change pads every hour n the blood is bright red n darkish brown. If anyone is going through the same thing n knows what is wrong please reply..idk what else to do. Im sorry for this being so long..

Dont be stressed. That can be happened due to usage of too many bc pills. I think its better to see a doctor

I understand you must be worried but go to a doctor. I was on the depo injection from 16-19 and stopped it wasn't back on it till I was 20 then I just continued to bleed, I bled for 6 weeks until the nurse told me I was immune to the depo and it would just make my bleeding worse, basically doing the complete opposite of what it is supposed to do. I was on the pill and it stopped the bleeding. I do think Juliabob is right, too many bc pills.
