No idea what is wrong

[Littlemissperiod]

I will be turning 18 next week and I got my period on my birthday when I turned 12.  Since then I have had a period every other week.  I have tried countless different birth controls but my period bleeds through the pill.  I have tried everything from homeopathic remedies to physical remedies to 12 or 13 different brands of birth control to diets.  I have had no long term luck with any of these methods.  My periods are always heavy, I bled through a regular tampon, an extra long pad and spandex, in just over an hour today at school.  And they last about 6 to 7 days each time.  I tend to get head aches, stabbing cramps and back aches, as well.  I was wondering if anybody has any solutions or similar cases...I have had a time where I bled for 5 weeks straight and a new prescription usually helps to regulate for about 3 months before I start bleeding through the pill and have to change to another brand.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I am finally getting testing done next week, I have not tried other forms because my doctor said it could complicate things even farther...

Have you tried other forms of birth control other than the pill?  There are other hormonal methods such as the shot, the nuva ring, the patch, the Mirena IUD, etc.  Have your hormone levels been tested to figure out what might be going on?  There has to be a reason why your cycles are so awful and treatments are only helpful for a short amount of time.
