Period problems... Help, please.

Posted , 3 users are following.

I began my period on the 5th and it was so light for 3 days that I didn't need to wear anything. This is very unusual for me because I'm normally very heavy and fill up my menstrual cups several times in a day. On the 4th day, it got heavy and lasted until the 12th December. Then nothing for 4 days. After 4 days I got brown discharge until the 21st December when I got some pink. And since yesterday (23rd December) I've been bleeding red with slight brown, quite heavily (compared to what it was). I've had two cramps since my period ended on the 12th. I'm really worried as it seems as though it's getting heavy. I'm not pregnant and not on any medication/the pill. Anyone had this?

      Well the thought that it could be cancer is playing on my mind and causing stress. And I have stress anyway.

      It's getting heavier. I have a doctors appointment on Tuesday but I wanted to see if anyone had any insight.

    Hi Goth.  Am having similar aggravation and was wondering how your visit to the docs went and if it helped?  My doctor is testing me for thyroid issues and anaemia and also said it was nothing to worry about (but how can I not?!!) so was curious how you were getting on.  Hope you're OK.
