Hello Doctor,
I'm 18 and have had irregular periods since I was 13. I often have bleeding between periods, usually during sexual activity, and sometimes miss periods. I also experience abdominal, hip, and lower back pain during these activities. What could be causing this?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
You should get tested for a urinary infection and have a pelvic scan. Irregular periods can result from infections, stress, hormonal imbalances, anovulation, or ovarian cysts. If a UTI is confirmed, antibiotics, fluids, and urinary analgesics can help. A proper evaluation will determine the cause and guide treatment to regulate your cycle.
Thanks
