Endometrial ablation does not give complete guarantee of infertility
Hence on a premenopausal patient, we do give them cautious advice to use protection
The likelihood of a pregnancy after a successful endometrial ablation is less
But if somebody is in her mid 50s, the likelihood of pregnancy is less anyways
So I do not think she needs birth control now

1- what birth control are you talking , is it pills ?
2- have you gained any weight ?
3- have you had your thyroid levels checked ?
If all if the above are normal - negative
I would not worry about it
Cause birth control pills can have an effect of having very light to no bleeding during menstrual cycle time
And sometimes it can happen after some time of being on it

If any of the above is abnormal- like if you have gained weight or thyroid level is abnormal then it needs correction

When you say that your periods are usually regular, I am assuming you meant prior to the Mirena. After removal of the Mirena IUD, give it a few months, cycles are expected to return back to normal If they do not and if they are still more frequent than 21 days, then you may need a pelvic ultrasound.

Sometimes there is unexplained bleeding in the presence of a normal viable pregnancy. There is no cervical trauma, there is no bleeding behind the placenta. However you are early in pregnancy and if your subsequent ultrasound shows that there is a sac but there is no fetal pole, there is no heartbeat and you are still bleeding then most likely it is a miscarriage.Another way to figure out whether it is a miscarriage or not is to test serum hCG values, if they are declining then it is a miscarriage.

Is this period bleeding or injury bleeding?

This is a bit difficult to answer without clinical examination
I recommend gynecological consultation

How do I get pregnant?

The window for having sexual activity so that you can get pregnant is during the time of ovulation. Ovulation is always exactly 14 days before the next expected menstrual cycle. It is difficult to predict ovulation day if the cycle is not regular. Even if your cycle is regular, it is not possible to know the exact next menstrual date. Hence we consider an approximate. According to your cycle pattern, find out when are you going to get your next first menstrual bleed. Calculate 14 days prior to that, that would be the expected data for ovulation. Take 3 days before the expected date of ovulation and 3 days after the expected date of ovulation-hence 1 week. Alternate sexual activity around that. Also, you are young, be patient. Sometimes some patients get pregnant in less than a year and some little over a year.

Could I be pregnant?

Let me assure you, you will not get pregnant this way. I am absolutely 100% positive, what you saw in the bathtub was not your brother's sperm. If it were that easy to get pregnant, there would have been a population explosion in the whole world. I think you are fine, however, having irregular cycles between 13-15 years of age is normal. But you do need to approach her gynecologist if you have cycles frequent, then 21 days or bleeding more than 7-9 days, heavy.

Irregular bleeding on the first Depo-Provera injection is very common. Since your bleeding is light, I suggest to give it more time, take the next Depo as scheduled. If you continue to bleed irregularly on the next shot also, then you may want to consider another form of birth control.

Why do my breast hurt?

It may be just a hormonal effect. You can apply vitamin E ointment or take vitamin D tablet 400 mg 3 times a day. Tight breast support. Avoid coffee/tea/spicy/oily food.

Help?

Your discharge seems to be a yeast/fungal infection. It probably happened because of the antibiotics you were given to treat the pelvic inflammatory disease.
