Never ending spotting

Has anyone else experienced brown spotting for days?? I was supposed to get AF on March 4th. I started spotting brown on the 5th and it hasn't stopped!! It's been 9 days and counting for this. I haven't had any cramps and only had two days where there was anything other than brown spotting (the two days I had pink only when I wiped..sorry for the TMI)What the heck could be causing this to happen?

My last three periods have been early. I came on yesterday and when i did i also had a migraine. They are never the same, sometimes i feel like everything is going to fall out when i stand up. Its not a nice feeling.

PMS with anovulation?

I got off of depo provera over 1.5 years ago and started having periods again in September 2008. My periods have since, been irregular (as they were before the depo) but the longest cycle length I've had is 42 days.

I don't think I ovulated at all this month. I had no EWCM and no breast pain which is usual for me at the time of ovulation. I'm now on day 43 of my cycle. Just for the record, we've been using condoms for birth control and didn't have any obvious breaks or leaks.

I did however have a ton of PMS symptoms, from depression, mood swings, bloating, and insomnia.

I'm wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to have PMS symptoms but not ovulate.

pelvic adhesions/fertility

When i was 16 years old i went to the OB/GYN for severe abdominal pain. They never did anything except ultrasounds and never found any reason for my pain. When i was 18 years old i gave birth to my son, and then my daughter at 21. I was still having the constant pelvic pain and still my dr wouldnt do anything. Finally when i was around 24 years old, he decided on a laproscopy and found that i had pelvic adhesions and said that it shouldnt have been as easy for me to get pregnant with my kids as it was. I am no 28 years old and desperately want one last child. I know they will be spaced far apart, however, my concern is with my adhesions...will they limit my fertility chances? I have been having unprotected sex for about 4 years now...however, it wasnt necessarily when i was ovulating or because i was TTC. It was just very random times, and i never got pregnant. I have never had a miscarriage or anything. Last year i started having constant periods that never stopped for months and was put on BC. Now i worry that i may never be able to have another baby. What is everyones opinion? Has anyone ever been diagnosed with these and still been able to conceive? In a week i am going in to discuss with my dr about another laproscopy (btw, this is a different dr than the first surgery, as i wanted a second opinion). Any help is appreciated and please cross your fingers for me that i can conceive one day! Thank you!

Endometriosis & Fibroids at 19

I'm 19 and iv been telling my doctors that i have endometriosis for 6 years, i finally convinced them to do the operation to see if i have endometriosis and it was confirmed that i do, ultrasounds have also confirmed that i have fibroids. I had my operation on 11th decemeber 2008 and they dont seem to be doing anything for me my next appointment is 18th march 2009. Every month i end up in A&E in pain due to my periods. My mother had the same problems and had to have a hystorectomy at 25 they have told me my symptoms are worse than hers were and i could have to have a hystorectomy earlier than 25, however they will not help me concieve a child asap before i cant have any at all. Im in a good long term relationship and have a mortgage with my boyfriend, he has a good job and i am a student nurse. I dont see why they wont help me concieve just because im 19. If they dont help me soon i might not be able to have children at all. Any advice????

No Help Second time Round

I found out that I had endometriosis when I was 14. I had some endomertriosis surger when I was 15. I have always had bad periods ones that you cant leave the house because it's too painful and too heavy. I was able to get pregnant at 20 naturally. Since than nothing. We have been trying for 3 years. I have actually had worst periods since having my daughter. I never know when or if I will have a period that month. But if I get one I know it will be bad. Every period starts with 3 days of crimpling cramps and 3 days of clots the other 4 days are regular heavy periods. I have seen 3 doctors that all say its the endometriosis and my thyroid. None of them want to help me because I've already had one naturally. If anyone has any tips or ideas for the second time around please let me know since doctors don't really care!
Thanks
