I'm not on any birth control and haven't been for 7 months, my periods where fine all normal all the 5-6 days and I normally have a 28 cycle like I normally would except last month and this month have been off, last month I came on a week early and it was normal for 5 days then after I kept spotting a brownish discharge. then stopped 2 weeks later I come on again which was 2 weeks early for me this month it was heavier than usual and extremely uncomfortable when I got cramps, I finished that on the 6th and had unprotected sex the 7th and 8th my period ended 3 days ago and now I have brown blood/discharge its not a lot yet its just spotting but I know it'll get heavier, I have no cramps at all just getting really irritated and annoyed at the fact I don't have much of a sex life anymore because I keep effing bleeding. I don't want to go back on the pill as my periods where fine until birth control was used and considering it just messes with fertility I'd rather not use it again except condoms now I'm all over the place and I know your cycle can change but mine already did that when I came off the pill it regulated itself. What should I do? And has anyone else experienced this?

Bleeding AGAIN?!
Hi, so again I am bleeding (getting really irritated with this cr**p)
I'm not on any birth control and haven't been for 7 months, my periods where fine all normal all the 5-6 days and I normally have a 28 cycle like I normally would except last month and this month have been off, last month I came on a week early and it was normal for 5 days then after I kept spotting a brownish discharge. then stopped 2 weeks later I come on again which was 2 weeks early for me this month it was heavier than usual and extremely uncomfortable when I got cramps, I finished that on the 6th and had unprotected sex the 7th and 8th my period ended 3 days ago and now I have brown blood/discharge its not a lot yet its just spotting but I know it'll get heavier, I have no cramps at all just getting really irritated and annoyed at the fact I don't have much of a sex life anymore because I keep effing bleeding.

Okay ladies a little TMI so apologies for that but I found out why I was spotting and bleeding irregularly. I've been to my dr and I had a small piece of tampon stuck causing me to bleed irregularly and to spot on and off, she said nothing else is there and I should be fine now, also no infections or anything yay! I Also want to warn all women to be extremely careful when using and buying tampons, buy the right ones for how heavy or light you are, she also asked me to bring my tampons in and explained that I need to use light tampons only, in my rush I grabbed the nearest box and didn't check (my own **** fault) she also explained that using lighter ones will ensure it doesn't happen again. Hopefully. Go and get checked if you are spotting or your periods are really off.
