abnormal bleeding between periods

[emsybaby]

i've had regular periods since age 11 (im 26) and this month it all seems to have gone haywire!
before my period i was spotting a tiny bit for a couple of days. i came on my period for a week as usual. now a week and a half after i finished my period, it seems i am on my period again.
i feel sickly and have back ache like when im on my period. im on the pill but have been for 10 years, same one, never any problems with it. i have no std's and neither does my partner (both checked recently)
im not sure whether i should wait and see if it happens again or go to the doctors. they'll probably tell me to wait and see anyway!

went to doctors today and was told wait and see for a couple of months :(

it's ot heavy bleeding as such, it's just like my normal period. i haven't taken a pregnancy test but i think i'd be very unlucky if i was (no missed pills, no illness) and this is the 5th day now. seems a bit too long for implantation bleeding?

Sounds like ovarian cysts.  I had those one on each side.  It caused mid cycle heavy bleeding for several months.  They finally resolved on their own.  Have you taken a pregnancy test also just in case?  Good luck to you.
