Hi,
I am a 21 year old female in good health. However, I have always had an unpredictable cycle. Sometimes I would have my period (which is usually just brown spotting) for a couple weeks, and then it would stop - and not come back for a month or two. I am currently trying to conceive, but am worried that I may not be ovulating or fertile. I was on Cyclessa (birth control) for a year and stopped taking it in September 2009. I bled for a month straight and didn't have another period again until the end of January. I thought I might have been pregnant, because I only bled for four days. It seemed like a "light period" very pink and light - not normal for me. I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative. After that, I had a period in March, April, and May, but they seemed like they were 40 days apart. I don't know how I am supposed to keep track of my cycle since I seem to spot for four days, bleed for maybe two days, and then spot for a week, until it dissipates. Help!
