Hi Sarah, 

I'm exactly the same as you but 22. After 2 weeks of bleeding I went to the sexual health clinic as it's so abnormal for me. I'm on the combined pill and have been for 8 years now. 

She checked my cervix and could only find a rare type of cyst that I've had since I was born. I'm terrrified though she has misdiagnosed it as something else. 

I've had back pain, pain on one side during sex, and she told me to come back after another cycle if it's still the same. Trouble is I don't want to wait as I feel like something is wrong

I can't be much help really but you're not alone xx

Hi Chloe, thanks for the reply. 
 

Aw well hopefully the results they gave you are correct and there is nothing else going on. Do they think the rare type of cyst you have is the cause of it? 

Of course if your not happy you should definatley not worry in silence and seek more help. I guess you can never be too careful. 
 

I hope you get to the bottom of it all. This is very new for me, I had years of awful periods which is why they wanted me to have the coil, they did help with them and I haven't had any issues up until now but this is awful. 
 
I have had two smears done now (I'm 31) both have been normal.
