I've got a series of issues going on with my period, and all I can figure out is that I'm either stressed, having hormone fluctuations, or pregnant. I have been overthinking and worrying like crazy! I would love to share my experience/thoughts and maybe get some outside input and experience on it. I am 17 years old and my period used to be very irregular, but in the past few months my period has started on the 15th and it lasts about 6 days. I am also in sync with my mom's period, which starts right before mine.
I have been having unprotected sex with a boy since about March 20, he has never cum inside me but I am aware that pre-cum can get you pregnant (although I read that it is rare?). I started bleeding a regular flow on the 5th, I was surprised that it was early but my mom's period came about a week and a half early so I did not question it. My flow was heavy enough to fill tampons for two days, the same color red as always, and I also noticed many small blood clots in my urine. After this I continued to have spotting for 4 days and it ended. Technically this is a 6 day period, but most of it was spotting and it was early so I don't know if that counts. I was still expecting a period on the 15th but it never came, so now it is technically 5 days late. This sounded like implantation bleeding but the blood clots, color, and flow don't seem to describe implantation bleeding (As far as I know). I also typically have clear skin but I did break out worse than I ever have in my life, right around the time I started to bleed. I am not experiencing any bloating, nausea, fatigue, but I am dealing with mood swings and very mild stomach cramps (Which is unusual, but they hardly linger at all and I'm not sure that they're cramps at all). I have also defecate much more than usual.
I'm aware that your period can fluctuate due to stress, and my life has been relatively easy in the past few months but I have been getting increasingly more stressed within the past two weeks and this is just making it worse. I do suffer from anxiety disorder and moderate depression that has gotten worse in the past few months, which I'm sure is no help to my stress. I also struggle to eat so I'm slightly underweight, but recently it's been worse and I have been hardly eating substantial food, so I'm sure that I'm lacking necessary vitamins.
So, now that you have read about my mood swings, period, and other fun stuff I would like to hear your opinion on it. I did try to research as much as I could but I couldn't find someone who has posted about something like this and it seems like everything on Google wants to convince you that you're pregnant or dying. I know that I have put in a lot of info already but opinions, comments, or anything would be much appreciated! I do plan on taking a pregnancy test next week but for now I'm hoping that it's just crazy puberty hormones or stress. What do y'all think?
