I've had my period for three weeks. I have an IUD, am not on any medications, and am 18 years old. My last period began on March 14, 2021. I had severe anemia in the past but recent blood tests were normal. I only need to change pads once or twice a day, have strong cramps, and am sexually active with one partner. I don't have any unusual vaginal symptoms. Should I be worried, and what should I do?

My husband and I have been trying to conceive. I had my Kyleena IUD removed on Feb 10th. My last period was 3 days late. I took a pregnancy test on the 23rd and it was negative. Later that day I got what I thought was my period. It lasted 6 days with two days of heavy bleeding in the middle. Once my period ended I started using OPKs and got 4 days of positives. I read that some LH tests will be elevated during pregnancy so out of curiosity I took 3 different pregnancy tests and all were positive. Could it be pregnancy if my period just ended? Was that bleeding something else like chemical pregnancy?

I’ve started bleeding due to a miscarriage. My appointment with my GP isn’t for a few more days. Should I wait to see my GP or should I go to the hospital? I started bleeding Wednesday night and I’m 28 years old. This is my first pregnancy and miscarriage. I have no other symptoms besides the bleeding, which is medium/light and has been ongoing since Wednesday night. I’m not feeling weak or dizzy, just tired.
