Windows 10: Bitlocker ID not on account for only some drives

I have recently had an issue where BitLocker was activated somehow despite owning a windows home account. I was able to get into my computer and remove the lock from my main drive that has windows installed on it. However, my other two drives are still locked and are completely inaccessible. When looking at my account the ID for these two drives does not show anywhere.
