elizabeth - December 31

I'm 26 years old. I started menstruation when i was 14. i started birth control at 17. i have been mostly on some sort of hormonal contraception these past nine years. i've taken pills, the depo shot, pills again, then most recently the nuva-ring.

in july 2008, i stopped using the nuva-ring after one year of usage. 2 weeks after stopping nuva-ring, i took the plan b emergency pill.

since then, july 2008, i have experienced abnormal bleeding. my cycles are shorter than 28 days with bleeding more than once a month. except when i skipped a whole month in february 2009. it also seems the onset of my bleeding will start after sexual intercourse or a day or two later.

i have sexual intercourse with the same person for 15 months, i was last tested clean for any stds right after start of this relationship 15 months ago.

i rarely experience any cramping, breast tenderness, or any other signs of PMS. the bleeding is either light to normal, occasional passing of blood clots.

here are calendar dates of bleeding:

9/3-9/9
9/29-10/5
10/20-10/26

11/7-11/10
12/3-12/7
1/10-1/15
2/1-spotte
d
one day very light
3/7-3/14
3/24-spot one day very light
3/28-4/2 (present)

any advice would be great. i have not seen a doctor yet bc i dont have alot of money, dont have any insurance, and i've been traveling outside of my home country since august 2008. thank you in advance for taking the time to read this.
