Constant periods

For probably the last 4 years I have had long very frequent periods. I have seen loads of doctors at both the family planning clinic and at my doctors surgery.
I have recently been put onto the combined pill (I had been on the mini pill for years), the first one of which made the situation worse and it looks like this one is just as bad. I went on holiday on 11th June - I was there 2 hours before I got my period (I wasn't due to finish my pack of pills untill 13th June so should expect a period by 15th). I still have my period nearly three weeks later. It varies in flow and colour (never very heavy).
The worst thing is that my partner of 3 years and I have not had a weekend away or a holiday with out me getting my period. It seems to be linked with me looking forward or getting excited about something! When this one does eventually finish it may only be a few days before I get another one. I am sick and tired of it now.
It gets me so down. My partner is so good and patient. What worries me is that I'm 36 and we would like to try for a family next year - will I ever be able to conceive, will I ever be able to sort this out. I am so worried.
I have had numerous pap/smear test and an ultrasound and everything inside looks healthy, so I am concinced it is hormonal. I hate it and would like to et it sorted out by the end of the summer as I we are getting married abroad in september. Please help.
Thank you
