    Not exactly the same, but I've gone from no periods to suddenly bleeding for 3 weeks at a time. But had the pains in my left side (womb side) so I freaked out. Had a ultrasound and an internal yesterday and there's nothing structural wrong so they saying it's hormone balance n need to change contraception. I'm currently on the pill and it started when I was given desogestrel I'm now discussing going on the mirena coil which is what they recommended also. Sorry to be not if much help but wanted you to know your not on your own

    it can be a hormonal problem or erosion. If it looks ok - then do not worry about it
