I am a 21-year-old vegan runner who hasn't had a period in over six months. I am taking several medications including doxycycline, Sertraline, bupropion, and spirolactone. I am also iron deficient. I am trying to start birth control but don't know when to start since I don't know when I'll get my period again. Additionally, I have noticed some excess vaginal discharge after recent sexual activity. What should I do?
