Don't worry: Many young women have irregular periods due to anovulatory cycles.  Early miscarriages are common and are not necessarily an indication that you will have problems carrying a pregnancy to term.

Yes.: Many cancers that arise from organs within the abdominal cavity can lead to spread of cancer throughout the lining of the abdominal cavity, called carcinomatosis.  This can lead to intestinal obstruction, effectively causing the intestines to "shut down".  These cancers may occasionally be responsive to chemotherapy but are more typically a pre-terminal finding.
