Q: Bleeding! Again!

asked by: Kia on November 28th, 2006

I can't believe that I am bleeding again.

I started my last period on oct 17 and bled until nov 2, stopped for 3 then on 5th had light flow, 6 nov spotting, 9 nov medium flow, 10th spotting, 11th light flow, 14th, 22nd, 26th, 27th spotting and now i'm back on medium flow.

My doc put me on 20mg progesterone a day for 21 days starting on the 9th nov (5mg is birth control dosage).

This was supposed to stop the bleeding altogether and as you can see it hasn't. I finish my progesterone in a few days and then am supposed to have a withdrawl bleed. I just know it's gonna start back up and not stop as soon as I stop the pills.

Ffs I hate being a woman right now - i'm not used to screwed up periods and ugh sorry had to vent.

Aw kia i'm sorry you're going through this. Have you thought of going on the mirena coil? I have it in and its fantastic. I have no periods at all! Obviously not good if you are ttc but I don't think you are actively trying anyway are you?

you tryin' t'kill me? Shocked

i can't use mixed birth control (i can only use progesterone only) me and estrogen do not get on well Evil or Very Mad

but it's not the birth control aspect i'm looking for - I really don't have an issue if pregnancy happens - college can wait if that's the case (heck it's waited 11 years so far lol)

i just want my old periods back Crying or Very sad

they were

I hate periods. *sigh*

but .I've also been cramping off and on for weeks now, and every day I think "okay maybe this is it" but it never comes. I would rather get my period then go on with the cramping. Neutral

nope. My periods were regular from the first day I got 'em. 26 day cycle with 3 days of light flow bleeding.
Nothing ever put my cycle out except being preggy (even a ruptured appendix didn't mess 'em up).

Straight after surgury with 0liver I was back on my 26 day cycle and I mean straight after - that was oct 2004.
Then april/may my cycle started to get longer - thought ok i'm getting older fair enough but they jumped from 26 to 30 to 35 to nearly 40 days.... But the bleeding only increased a bit, not much

then suddenly boom out of nowhere it's like i'm getting pay back for always having had short regular periods.

I've got a gynae appt to schedule after this course of hormones so we'll see what's going on hopefully.
But ugh it's just so annoying and inconvenient *sigh*

yeah, but I started to get my periods at 9 - that's like 16/17 years on the same cycle, maybe I was due a change or something - just it could have been nicer than this lol
