hello, I am 24 in a serious long term relationship, I am sexually active and have no STD'S as was checked a month ago and had all clear.

Ill set my problem out in a diary as it will be easier to understand.

I would be so grateful if you could take time to read it and help me if you can with any advice or if you have had a similar experience.

I was waiting for my period to start so I could start taking CILEST ocp.

The week running upto my period my nipple were very sore and sensitive which never happens to me.

I was 4 days late so took a pregnancy test and it came back Neg.

On the 5th day I started spotting for the next 2 days.

Had extreme pain the next day on my left side that actually made methrow up, and i started bleeding as a normal medium flow period but only untill roughly 24hrs later when it went back to brown spotting.

I have now been spotting brown discharge for 5 days now, its isn't enough to use a pad as it barely shows on my knickers, it shows after I go to the loo on the paper, sometimes it is darker but never red like blood.

It gets alot lighter by the evening, Its like a egg white with old blood in it.

My breasts are both so so tender, which I have read can just be a sign of the cilest but is it not too soon to be having this after only a week?

I took another test yesterday but it was still NEG.

PLEASE HELP ME, even some reassurance that im not the only one.

Hello I am 21 and have gone through something similar and it ended up being pcos. But I never had the soar breast till recently. You should ask yoir docotr to be checked it a lot more common then woman may think. Its nothing to serious and can be treated. It is not an std. I hope this helps

newbride is right that it is possible that you might have PCOS. I think that at this point it is best for you to realize that you are not alone, that you have a support network of friend and family and--beyond that even--you have the forums to come to and talk about your issue. So please rest assured that whatever it ends up being, you will be able to handle it. It's been a month--is there any way you can give us an update on how you're doing?

Hi:
It sounds like you were just about to start on BC, but these symptoms began. They sound like symptoms of pregnancy, however, if you did start on BC, these symptoms might appear as well. You could be experiencing either the effects of pregnancy, or a reaction to the BC. The only way to know is to take a test. However, if you've taken it too early, (and it sounds like you have), you will not get accurate results. Wait about two weeks and then take it again. You should get accurate results by then. Best wishes to you. Please let us know how you are doing.

Hey guys,

Sorry i didn't realise you were waiting to see how things went, I haven't been on here but im back now, funnily enough because I have another problem with dark spotting/bleeding a week into pill pack. Still in the same pill so have been on it a while now i thought my body should of adjusted by now surely, im a grown adult so my body isn't going through any normal changes but hey maybe im just not cut out for the pill.

The symptoms I has before went away, my boobs were sore at the start of every new pack for the first 4/5 months.

i has a scan before i asked for the pill i was having terrible pain at the start of my periods and the GP thought it could be cysts and every few days I got ( and still get 0 a slight pinching pain around my right ovary area, The scan showed nothing and my GP then was happt to give me BCP to see if that helped, So here i am.

Do you ever feel that you almost have to go and tell the doctor what is wrong with you instead of them diagnosing you?

xx
