I really hope someone can help me... I am 30 yrs old and have 3 children ages 12, 9, and 1 1/2. Shortly after my now 9 yr old son was born I was diagnosed with PCOS as my periods had always been very irregular but I had stopped having them all but maybe 1-3 per yr. The longest I have gone without a period was 9 months and this happened several times mostly skipping 4-6 months between though. For years I was unsuccessful trying to conceive despite fertility drugs (Clomid, etc.). My husband and I divorced after 7 years and he had been tested as well and everything was fine with him. I met my current boyfriend in late 2008 and we "halfway" tried to conceive at the start of 2009 in which I started my own herbal treatment with teas containing chaste tree berry, dong quai, juniper berry, fennel seed, ginger root, cinnamon bark, chamomile flower, raspberry leaf, anise seed, parsley leaf and saffron stamen. Well unexpectedly by the end of march 2009 I was pregnant with my now 1 and 1/2 yr old son.after my period returned after I stopped nursing, I had about 3 "normal" periods and then they stopped again for 9 months. When I finally had one may 11, 2011 (lmp 8/2010) it was extremely heavy and painful and I was extremely fatigued, which was to be expected I guess. We had unprotected sex first time since on 6/9/2011 (cycle day 30 for me)and again 6/16/2011. On 6/17/2011 I started having brown spotting, only showing on toilet paper and it was very intermittent and only had a few drops on 1 pad the rest of the day and stopped that night so we had sex again on 6/18 then I started to spot again still brown with a little slimy light pink. Then 6/20-6/21 had slightly more darker red bleeding so I wore a tampon thinking it was my period but during this time it was also intermittent and really didn't warrant wearing a tampon but I did anyway. Although I did notice a little more after doing a bit of walking one of these days, enough to leak off the side of the pad(no tampon) but only covered a very small portion of the pad. Then later on 6/21 it was very light pink again like at first then stopped completely. We then had unprotected sex again 6/23 and I noticed barely visible light pink during wiping but attributed that to sex. I had taken 2 hpts, both negative but I realize this is probably way too early for that. I'm just very confused as to what this was... I really do not think it was my period because I have never experienced like this before. My periods are always very heavy and last 7-8 days. I am frustrated not knowing what this was because of having the PCOS and I lost my job a year ago so I have no health insurance and cannot afford to go to the dr. Can someone please provide me a little insight?
