I've been having abnormal bleeding for about 5 months and I’m in pain. The pain is sharp and achey, localized in the abdominal area. I have PTSD, narcolepsy, and take medication for both. I’m 29 years old, my periods have been mostly normal but started to be irregular this year, and I’ve been bleeding every day since February. I have blood clots, and I saw my OBGYN who put in an IUD but it didn’t help. An ultrasound test didn’t find any fibroids or abnormalities, but I’ve been having a lot of pain and discomfort, sometimes feeling weak to the point of almost passing out. I’m not taking any hormone pills and change my pad around 6-7 times a day or more. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am experiencing severe cramps that have lasted for a few weeks. My last period was last month, and it does not come regularly. I frequently experience cramping, but never this bad. I have no fever, discharge, burning or itching while passing urine, stress, or any other symptoms. What could be causing these cramps and what can I do to alleviate them?

I have a history of ovarian cysts and just had one burst. I'm uninsured and unsure if I should see a doctor right away. How can I gauge whether I need medical attention?

I missed my period and took a pregnancy test, which came back negative. My last period began on January 11, and I am not using any contraceptives or medications. I am 21 years old and have been trying to conceive for six months. What could be causing my missed period, and what steps should I take?
