Miscarriage or Period

Brooklynn

So I haven't had a period since November thanks to my PCOS. And I just started a couple days ago.

But this period has been super weird. I've been super fatigued and dizzy and the blood is way darker and thicker and I keep having to empty my menstrual cup every hour because it gets full of blood and clotted tissue and starts to leak. I've never had a period this bad before. I've been 9 months before without a period and when I finally started it wasn't even this bad... I was also having weird discharge before I got my period that I usually don't have.

I've had cramps so bad I have to pause and breath for a second and my back... omg my back feels like someone is kicking me in it. And I keep having these weird pains in my pelvic area and "down there." So I'm really starting to think this might be a miscarriage??

My fiance and I haven't used protection in over a year so the likelyhood of pregnancy was very high... and now that I think I have my period again I suddenly have all of these terrible symptoms that I don't usually have...

And I can't even go to the doctor because my mom is mad at me right now and I can't ask her who I should go to or ask her about my symptoms, and I HATE the gynecologist I have now because she never listens to me. I've been to her like 4 times and every time all she does is put me on a new birth control... which has not helped with my symptoms. I honestly believe she thinks I'm lying/being dramatic.

I just don't know what to do.

Also: I just remembered how weird I thought it was when I started my period. Usually I start with spotting for a couple days and then my period starts flowing. This period was just... BAM. I was fine and then I got in the shower and had a cramp so bad I had to sit down in the shower and as soon as I got out blood started dripping down my legs... which has never happened to me before 😣
