brownish/pinkish vaginal discharge

[dua81]

i have irregular periods since the age of 20 ,they r really literally irregular, sometimes they starrts after a month n sometimes after 60 or 70 or 80 or 90 n one time after 120 days n  lasts for 15 days , i, went to a few doctors before my marriage , they did checkup n ultrasounds n all but all said to ignore dat everything is ok n   not to worry, but as i was very worried they gave me some medicine but my periods r still irregular now dat i m  29 years old, one year ago i got  married n  from dat time trying to concieve but has not yet succeded. so i went again to see a doctor she asked me to do some tests n once again ultra sound , i did da tests n all were normal but could not afford to do ultra sound now as my husband is currently jobless,
my last was from 18 may to 28 may, period da reason m worried now is dat there is pinkish n sometimes brownish vaginal discharge from almost a week now, its very small in quantity, so little dat i dont even need to use pad ,but after using bathroom its embarrasing but ven cleaning wid toilet paper i see da discharge,
its not the first time, it happened a few times before n everytime i thought mayb my periods have started cause they r irregular so it can happen any time.but previously it lasted for a day or 2 but now its more than a week
m tired of going to da doctors m not sure even if its normal or something to worry about n to b honest at present v cant afford doctors visit
so can anyone tell me if its ok n normal?

HI and thanks for using the forum.

First, it never hurts to take a pregnancy test just in case.  There are a lot of clinics and even doctor offices that offer free pregnancy tests.  So that is what I would recommend that you do first.

With your periods being so irregular, it is going to be very difficult for you to get pregnant since you don't know when (or if) you are ovulating.  I don't see how the doctor could tell you that everything is OK and not to worry about it when your periods are so irregular and so far apart.  There are medications that your can take when you are trying to conceive that can help regulate your cycle and help you to ovulate.  IF you really want to get pregnant, you should go back to the doctor again and explain you are trying to conceive.  I don't know where you live, but you should check and see if there are any clinics in your area.  Lots of times clinics have a pay scale and can work with you regarding billing.  Good luck.
