Avatar f tn Last summer, I go back to my home country and manage to regain my regular cycle (heavy flow for 3 days , then getting lighter to the end, the whole period usually takes around 1 week) on July and August. However, on September, my period become very light and shortened into 4 days. This month, I'm having many deadlines and midterm test, I loss 1 kg and my period is yet to come (tho it supposed to come anytime now).
Avatar f tn A woman with a light period is not gaining much thickness in her endometrial lining during the early part of the menstrual cycle. This is usually an indication that estrogen levels are lower than normal. If estrogen levels are low, progesterone levels are likely to also be low and a woman may or may not ovulate with her cycles.
Avatar f tn I'm 42 and starting to get worried about this long cycle that seems to be getting a bit heavier instead of lighter. On 7/14 I started my cycle which was nothing unusual but here I am still on it almost 11 days later. Peri menopause? The blood is not heavy or light, sort of what it's usually like mid cycle and it's bright red. Around day 7 it seemed to be letting up a bit but now it seems to be getting a tiny bit heavier every day, not heavy just heavier.
Avatar f tn So I usually have a 26-28 day menstrual cycle and last 4-6 but last month after bleeding for 4 days I kept spotting for two week doctors just brush it off as endo. This month I had my menstural in 41 days but with far more increased pains with a negative pregnancy test. What should I do? Second day bleeding but its much lighter than yesterday.
Avatar f tn also those women usally respond to a blood test beter to check for pregnancy has she had one of thm
Avatar n tn FYI - the urine is getting lighter in color today..so 3 days it was very dark again and 4th day lighter...I took her in for blood tests this morning...hoping her levels are elevated so the Doctor can see I am not crazy.
Avatar f tn The chance of getting pregnant revolves around your ovulation cycle. You can look it up on an ovulation tracker. Put in when your periods are and it will tell you when your best/worst chance at getting pregnant is basically.
Avatar f tn I keep getting cramps like i would if my menstrual cycle was coming. Im almost 31 weeks is this normal. It hurts and it *****.
Avatar n tn can take couples years to concieve.however since your cycle is a bit wacky,i would concentrate on getting that regular first.once this is sorted then concieveing should be easy.since you will know your ovulation.failing that bed from cd12 onwards.until you are confident you have ovulated.there are plenty of signs you can use to confirm ovulation,all the best.
Avatar n tn You count the length of your cycle from the first day of your last period to the first day of your next period. The length of your mentration does not calculate. Once you know the average length of your cycle, you can find out when you are supposed to O.
Avatar n tn I've been having my menstrual cycle every 12-14 days for the last 3 months. My normal cycle is 5 days and I flow light however, this last one I was on it for 10 days!! Now I am will be starting again, because it's been every 12-14 days. What can this be? I am only 38 years old. I went to the doctor they took my blood, she is testing for Thyroid & Enima. I don't think it has to do with either one of them, but I will soon find out.
937837 tn?1285350385 I thought after you got ones levels into range the menstrual cycle was supposed to normalize. I have had about 3 50 day cycles since I was diagnosed and started meds. Before my cycles were 37, 49, 34, stopped taking birth control in mid October. Was just wondering if anyone knows if this is normal for a women with hypothyroidism?
Avatar f tn I have the same problems that you do or did with my cycle. I’ve been ignoring my abnormal cycle for a year already. I was just thinking that my body was starting to go through the change & it was like a Big Bang period blowout. But it still hasn’t stopped flowing. I will wake up drenched & my bed & bedding ruined every month atleast once. (My bed is peroxide drunk & I don’t think my bed can handle anymore peroxide.
1314765 tn?1274093206 Two days passed since I had the discharge and spotting then I got my cycle (at least I thought it was my cycle). This cycle lasted for about 3 1/2 days (my normal cycles usually last for 4 days) but it wasn't like my normal cycle (the flow was lighter which variations in colors). Now that it's ended I'm now experiencing spotting once more. My question is was this truly a menstrual cycle or not?
Avatar f tn he touched his **** often and touched my vaginal lips but did not insert. this happened on the 20th day of my menstrual cycle. I bled ten days later but my period was slightly lighter than my one. four weeks later i am bleeding again but this is considerably lighter than my normal period. i dont feel hungry and i had funny poking pains on the left side of my belly button. i had a lil back ache before bleeding. should i be worried about gettin pergnant?
Avatar f tn It could be. Sex can mess your menstrual cycle up, but pregnancy can't be ruled out because you had unprotected sex. Pulling out doesn't prevent pregnancy, so you're not actually safe from it. You need to wait two weeks since you last had sex and take a pregnancy test with first morning urine. If you don't want to conceive, you need to make sure you always use condoms and birth control.
1459828 tn?1287060343 t sure when to start the strips where I had a miscarriage in December this was my first menstrual cycle since then. Any advice or suggestions?
Avatar f tn I was usually always on time for my menstrual cycle but started having lighter periods and one month bled for 21 days. Now I have totally skipped 3 months. My biggest concern is the extreme fatigue. Is this normal or for concern?
1900942 tn?1462421460 s very natural and expected that if you have a longer cycle you will ovulate later. For example, many women with a 35 day cycle will ovulate on CD 20-25. It doesn't mean their eggs are bad quality. What is your average cycle length so far, and what CD are you on?
184420 tn?1326739808 Hi, I started Tamoxifen in November last year. I had 4 cycles of chemo but still had a regular menstrual cycle until the end of the chemo. Then nothing for 2 months. They started again in October and then went onto Tamoxifen in Nov. I have continued to have menstrual cycles and had blood test to confirm that I am ovulating. I just got the T bar coil inserted and my periods are now very heavy.
