having some female health problems :(

sorry this is kinda gross :/

on thursday night instead of having my normal period i started experiencing abnormal bleeding down there. it's definitely not my period because i don't have any cramps or normal period pain like joint aches and this feels like its coming from elsewhere. i've also bled everyday the same amount which doesn't happen on a period it obviously varies. anyway i'm also experiencing pelvic pain, lightheadedness, frequent urination and occasional small clots - noticed it especially in the shower. it is not thick but i'm having to use normal pads and changing it every 3 hours.

i'm 19F and i've never had sex. i don't take contraception or any medication. i'm a university student and i'm not registered as a temporary resident at my home address. i hope they allow me to visit but i'm not sure how serious this is.

i don't really want to waste a doctor's time if it's not anything to worry about because i've done a lot more exercise recently. also got the covid jab a few weeks ago. in general it could just be a one off.

but it's been 2 days and i'm getting realllyyy stressed about my symptoms. i'm not sure what i should do about this so any advice on what i should do next?
See a doctor. Better safe than sorry (:
See a doctor - either phone the GP surgery and explain you’re a uni student home for the summer, or go to a walk in clinic
