Irregular Periods, Bulky Uterus. Want To Conceive. Advice?

Hi doc, im 23 and have been trying to concieve for 5years.. I have irregular periods.. Since i started seeing my periods.. It was always like that.. Well actually it started after i started taking contraceptives.. I took them in 2005, twice , from there i started to have irregular periods. In 2008 i had an car accident and i was two months pregnant, i lost the baby and had an internal bleeding.. From there my periods were worse than before, i bleeded heavily in 2009, till i went to hospital and they gave me some pills,then i was well again.. I fell pregnant in November 2009 and miscarried in 2010 January.. From there i started seeing drops.. My periods drifted far worse from before.. Sometimes i would miss my periods for 3months, and each dr i went to told me that its the way my body is.. There is no way they would help me.. I fell pregnant again in 2011.. And lost it again.. In 2012.. And lost the baby, even this year i fell pregnant and im afraid i lost the baby again.. I went to the doctor yesterday and she said i have a bulky uterus.. She did some blood test and were still waiting for the results.. The problem is that my tummy swells frequently.. And it hurts.. I last saw my normal periods lastyear December after i had an womb scrub.. This year from January uptill April there was nothing.. Until mid-April, i saw some few drops.. Even now they come and go.. Im realy stressed i dnt know what to do, all this times i was doing blood test, and it always showed that my periods are irregular but they never realy found a solution for me :(

Hello,
I went through' your problem. As per your statement from the year 2005 after taking contraceptive pills 2 times your periods are irregular. Meanwhile you had a car accident in the year 2008 while you were 2 months pregnant. You had internal bleeding from where ? and you lost the baby. Meanwhile you had some miscarriages.
Your periods were regular for a few months after uterine curettage last December. Now your Dr doubts that you may have bulky uterus by clinical examination, for which also only blood test was done. Did it a Hormone analysis and I like to know what medicines you were taking so far to regularize your irregular periods.
My best advise:
1) Do a USG abdomen to assess your reproductive organs and causes for irregular periods, the size of the uterus and ovaries and any abnormality in them
2) A complete Thyroid and ovarian hormone analysis along with other routine blood tests
With this you can arrive at a diagnosis. In order to avoid miscarriages, first regularize your periods, then plan for pregnancy.
Wishing you all the best
