I was sexually abused as a young girl. i'm now 23. could this have messed up my hormones or my periods? i have always had trouble with my periods.

Likely unrelated: There could be some emotional aspects you stress over, but these are secondary to what nature does to your system. The average woman will have predictable cycles but there are a great number who do not.These women often start having problems as soon as menses starts. One of the original reasons the pill was developed was to help control cycles. Over time the BC side effect became their main use.
