See your doctor: Several possibilities, including pregnancy problems such as a tubal/ectopic (out of place) pregnancy that could be serious. Might also be other problems such as hormonal imbalance (even polycystic ovarian syndrome--pcos). If you don't want to be pregnant, birth control is a good idea. Best to check it out.
