is it normal for your menstrual cycle to change. my period is usual at the middle of every month but now it came early but it's not the same as my other periods its heavier, less pain and the normal signs that i use to get to tell me that my period was coming i did not get them this time around. is it normal or is there something wrong with me.
View 2 RepliesLast month, I had a very light period that only lasted two days. After that, I had bad cramps in my hips and pelvic area. They lasted for about two weeks or so. Yesterday, I finally got my period. But when I woke up today, I had leaked, and bled through my underwear and pants. This isn't really normal for me, I've never had a leak before. I'm guessing that my period is a lot heavier than it usually is.
I'm 14, and I know that my period isn't supposed to regulate for about 2 or 3 years, but is this something I should be concerned about? I could just be working myself up over nothing, but anything that isn't normal terrifies me.
Ok so last month my periods were a week later than usual, does this mean my periods will remain late all the time now? Or should they go back to normal?
View 1 RepliesI've been on my period for about 7 months now. However I've been on my period once before for a entire year. I don't remember when I started or when it stopped, considering remembering things isn't on the top of my to do list. I'm 20 years old and since I started 7 months ago, I've only had one day without a period. Since then, it's been a constant heavy flow.
View 1 RepliesI've been on my period for 12 days. I've been on birth control for 4 months now and the previous 2 months my period has come a week early, so I've just keep taking the pills as usual (so the first week of my period I was taking the birth control and the second week were placebo pills). This month it was a week and a half early and I'm still having heavy bleeding and clotting. What could be going on and what can I do?
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if anyone could put my mind at ease.. Since the 25th of march til today (2nd of june) i have had 8 periods. I'm 20 years old and have always had my periods pretty regular so this is very unusual.
View 4 RepliesI have had no periods for about 3 months now and recently been diagnosed with an overactive bladder about a week ago. I have had a lot of pain and been in and out of A&E several times in the last few months.
View 5 RepliesI'm confused about if your pregnant from the sex before or after your last cycle. I had unprotected sex a couple of days before my last cycle so would I be pregnant from that sex or from the sex that was a couple of days after my cycle? ?
View 16 RepliesI came on my period from August 28 until Sep. 3 and now 9 days later I am back on. Sep 12th. I am 46 years old, what is happening to me?
View 1 RepliesI have had normal regular periods for almost ten years. Every month I will be on for around five days, bleeding normally with normal red blood. I have been on the pill on and off for about 4 years. Once I stop the pill for my seven day break, I usually come on two days after.
The past couple of months it has taken me about four days to come on and when I do I am not really bleeding, I am only really bleeding as I actually go to the toilet and when I do it is thick dark brown clots. I am not leaking normal blood if that makes sense?
Is this normal or should I have it checked out?
I need to adjust my thyroid supplement therapy. I won't be able to see any of my doctors (GP, gynecologist, endocrinologist) for at least a month. Waiting list is that long.
I have PCOS and Hashimoto's (treated with T4 and T3). My periods have been regular (between 28 and 35 days) since I was 12. However, this month I had my period barely three weeks after the last one. It usually lasts for about 5 days, however today's my 7th day and it doesn't look as if it's going to stop. I've seen my gynecologist twice this august, and all the results were fine.
It's certainly due to overmedication. My endo increased the dosage of my medication 4 months ago. Since then, I tested my TSH and got bad result - 0,1.
She has decreased my dose since, but the result remains the same - 0,1. I'm aware that I need professional help, but I must do something. I can't continue my therapy like this. Any advice on how to decrease the dosage from 50 mg levothyroxine (T3) and 50 mg euthyral (T4 and T3) would save me.
I got my menstrual cycle twice for the month. Just wondering what could cause it to occur and has this happened to anyone else on here?
View 2 RepliesI have had high blood pressure since 2009. My medication will control it until around my menstrual cycle. I will have horrible headaches that turn into migraines and my blood pressure will jump to 180/110 and stay there for a few days. My doctor stated that it is stress related, but my question is: if it is stress related, why do I just have these horrific headaches and my blood pressure skyrocket just around my menstrual? I can't find the answer. I have researched it and have ask my physician, but no new light has been shed. Does anyone have any information?
View 1 Repliesabout 11 days into my cycle I get slight pink discharge for one day and then camping till my period comes I'm only cramp free about ten days does anyone else get this I'm not on the pill or anything I have two kids and all my smears are fine had scans for ovary cyst etc, could this just be ovulation problems that go on till I take my period?
View 3 RepliesI've been on 100 mg Nortriptyline for months now for my chronic migraines and one night I felt like I was suffocating so I stopped taking them cold turkey. It's been about a week since I stopped them. Is there any chance it will affect my menstrual cycle? While taking them, it was never at the same time, it was always early or late so I'm not sure what to do.
View 1 RepliesI am 19 years old and was taking yaz (which worked very well in regulating my period). I happened to loose the pack of pills with two weeks remaining. Since then, I have had sex with him ejaculating and my menstrual cycle has not come in 6 weeks? Is there a possibility that i may be pregnant?
View 1 RepliesI was quite late to start my periods- 16 and they lasted for roughly a year or so very irregular. They went away to costa rica and by the time i returned about 3 months later and i had turned 17 my periods had stopped. I haven't had my periods since, i have however been to the doctors several times, they have taken my blood and seem to have found no symptoms- they just told me they will return soon. One said it was because i was too thin, i am quite slim but no more than some of my friends and i eat a lot. It took quite a bit of effort but recently gained a little weight- i travel quite a bit (asia, south and central America, af) and was wondering if it was possible i have some kind of parasite. I'm 19 almost 20- there must be something up.
View 1 RepliesI recently went to my doctor because pretty much since I started my period at 14, I've experience really bad cramps. The issue however is not that, my problem is that throughout the month regardless if I am due or not I get period cramps, or what I can only explain as "period cramps" as that is the closest thing it feels like, its defiantly within that region. I was tested for any STD's or ovarian cancer which all came back clear and then sent to hospital for an ultra sound to see if I had ovarian cysts or anything like that, again it all came back clear. I've had regular smear tests as well and I've never had any irregularities. So now I'm really confused and although I guess relieved that its none of the above, I'm now left pretty anxious and confused as I still have no idea what is happening. I've a pretty high pain threshold but these are really uncomfortable and sore and I cant just ignore the issue. I don't get discharge, blood or anything, just a sudden shooting pain in that area and it lasts a couple of seconds, and then goes. It can happen at anytime of the month and I'm really scared at what it is. Anyone have any ideas or experienced the same thing? I just want to put a name to its scary face that i have created!
View 4 RepliesA few days before my period I basically lose control of my urination. If I can't get to the bathroom as soon as I feel the urge I will wet my pants. I don't remember this before I had kids... if it did happen it was not as extreme as it is now. Anyone know what is going on?!

View 2 RepliesI was recently diagnosed with cutaneous lupus. I was on prednisone and now I am on Plaquenil 400mg a day. I called my pharmacist and asked him if the Plaquenil can stop my menstrual cycle and he looked it up and told me no. So, now I am wondering if the lupus is the cause. I am 5 weeks late I haven't had my period yet and my husband had a vasectomy so I know I can not be pregnant. So my question is can cutaneous lupus cause me not to have a period?
