Well I thought I was pregnant because in jan I spotted for only 3 days in feb I totally missed a whole period.. in march I was late but then started spotting or wutever it was and it wasn't even blood it was like a brownish color and if I saw blood it wasn't even there it was like barely existent.. I got it march 20 and it ended march 24 and I was having unprotected sex after that with my boyfriend.. now its like a week and a half after my period or wutever and now I'm bleeding again lightly it's a red kind of brown.. I don't know if there is something wrong wit me or what I been having all these problems I cnt go to the doctor I have no insurance any more..

Have you tried a pregnancy test? Check out a planned parenthood, the health department, or a pregnancy crisis center and you can likely get a free, or for a minimal fee, test done.
If you had recent sex, some women will have a bit of spotting or light bleeding for a couple of days afterwards.
Had you been on any sort of birth control before the unprotected sex? Some forms can throw your period off once in awhile.
Do you qualify for Medicaid? Might be something to look into so that you have some coverage.
There are a number of possible reasons for a period to be off. It will be worth the peace of mind to get things checked out.
