Sexual Health - Women Forum - Irregular Periods...etc

Ok I need some help and wanted to know if anyone could give me some info. For the last 3 months or so I have been getting my period every two weeks. The periods are normal flow they just occur more often. Also I used to get painful cramping but ever since this started the pain is gone. Also I now have a constant discharge that doesn't have a very pleasant smell. I don't know why because I have never been sexually active. Also for the past two period cycles I have gotten very weak and exhausted for the first 2 or 3 days of it. I also sometimes find myself short of breath those frist days...I am not in bad health at all and don't have asthma. I went to my family doctor and got a pap done, and am still waiting for the results. I just wanted to know if anyone could help?!!

Well, you need to wait for the pap results...But just take it easy when you are on your period....You may be/become anemic with all the blood loss...Which could be what is making you exhausted. The doctor may put you on birth control to regulate your periods, and to make the flow a lot lighter to prevent uneeded iron loss through the blood. Smile

just take it easy for now!
