No period since October and now spotting with cramps

I stopped taking birth control due to really bad headaches in August 2019. I was on the pill for 10 years. I had one period in October 2019 and haven’t had one since. Had a few tests ran and found out I had high prolactin (had an MRI which was clear). I had an influx of unwanted hair growth below my bellybutton and starting on my chin a bit. I really do not want to be back on birth control at all. I clearly have a hormone imbalance but doctors only want to just throw you right back on birth control. I am supposed to be getting an ultrasound of my uterine lining to see if it has thickened soon. I have been starting seed cycling and drinking spearmint tea twice a day to reduce androgens which I assume I have a problem with due to unwanted hair growth. Yesterday I started spotting and was super excited that my period might be starting. I’m still spotting day 2 with some pretty bad cramps. I was on the pill for 10 years and had short periods with now cramps. I’m kinda freaking out thinking something is wrong with the spotting and cramps. Or maybe I’m just overthinking it and it’s a good sign things might be getting better? lol
