Period talk below. If that makes you feel grossed out, I'd recommend not reading ahead. But, in any case, I'll do my best not to be unnecessarily graphic.
This has been a problem of mine ever since I've started having periods, but they've always been pretty irregular. I've missed my periods for months at a time (7 months straight, one time), had seperate ones weeks or even days apart, and have ones that can be either very light, normal, or unnaturally heavy. One ended up being so bad recently that I ended up almost collapsing at work from the heavy blood loss. It was frightening. And that's not even mentioning the time that I had one that was about a month long (yes, I'm being serious).
I've tried seeing doctors about this in the past, but all they ever want to do is give me birth control, which does not solve the problem and is just not something that I'm comfortable with anyways. So I just kind of gave up on going to the doctors, especially since they always do blood tests on me and can never find anything wrong with me in that department.
It's been two months or more since my last period cycle and now I'm curious again about what's happening with my body. I'm wondering if I might possibly have something seriously wrong with me, like PCOS or uterine fibroids. My mom has uterine fibroids, so I think that could be a possibility for me too.
Whatever it is, I just really hope that I still have the ability to have children... Please pray for me, everyone. I have an appointment to see my gynecologist at the beginning of next month.
