make period normal again?

Question

So whenever I get my AF, it's usually like light the first day and then for 3 days it's heavy and then gets lighter again (about 6 day process). I was due to get it on the 18th and it's now the 21st; I've been spitting blood and when I wipe it's pink or bright red. But not heavy to the point where I need a pad, but enough that it stains. Now I did have sex on September 7 but he used a condom and I tested for pregnancy 7 times and it was negative. I've also been extremely stressed from constantly worrying about pregnancy and what is wrong with me (since September 7th)...so chronic stress is killing me. I've also had a normal period (from sept 17-22) since I had sex, so I'm just confused as to why this very light blood is coming out of me. I also usually get pms symptoms like sore boobs and weak legs and slight cramps, but I'm barely experiencing any of that. Could it be due to pregnancy or something else? And are there natural ways to make your period heavier?? I want my normal flow back I'm so worried

Answer

You are right, chronic stress will absolutely screw up a perfectly normal period.
I highly doubt you're pregnant since you've had a normal period since having sex AND you've had 7 negative pregnancy tests. So, if I were you, I'd go ahead and put that possibility aside and take a deeeeep breath. 
Relax.
Bodies do weird things, especially when we throw in intense stress. There's no need to worry. Just relax. Let your body do this weird thing for a while. 
If your period doesn't go back to normal in the next couple of months, high doses of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is known to bring on a period. We're talking HIGH doses though, and our livers don't love intense amounts of vitamin C, so I wouldn't do that right away. 
Another option is taking St. John's Wort or Vitex. SJW is good for balancing hormones in general, especially for women. I take it all the time for daily maintenance. Vitex is known to stimulate ovulation, which, in turn will bring on a period 2 weeks or so after ovulation. 
Basically, just relax for now. It might be good to make a change in the future if this keeps acting up, but id say your biggest enemy is stress.

Thanks so much that's putting me at ease! I thinking having sex messed me up :( I'm bleeding heavier now and I'm happy about that so hoping it gets heavier and heavier lol I really appreciate your input!!!😊
