I just hit 45 yrs. My periods had become bad, etc. The OBGYN wanted to perform a hysterectomy. I changed my mind on that because my period ceased for two months and now it’s very little. This has all started around late last summer. My moods are depressed and I am constantly angry and anxious. Very ethargic as well. Can anyone tell me if menopause caused these symptoms for them and any solutions? I will be seeing the doc again as well. Also, how long will this last? Thanks in advnce!

i’m wondering if periods are genetic.
What i am saying is, will i have the same cyle as my mother.
She has a heavy period for 3 days and I am the same way.
Also she started around the same time as she did.
Does this sound very genetic?

I think I may have a hormonal imbalance. Should I go to a specialty doctor to have myself checked out? If so, which one? Or a "family" doctor?
I think it may be something the Pill can fix, but I do not want to be misdiagnosed.
All of a sudden I have grown more body hair and my breakouts have become inconsistent, as with my periods. I am 16 and lebanese, so I’m used to a little body hair, but I think my hormones went crazy over the past 4 months :/

I will be a partial if it is recommneded. My periods are so heavy that I wear 2 tampons and an overnight! This has been going on about 3.5 years and I am so tired of it. My sister had one done due to fibroids as well. I was bleeding so bad one day that I started shaking. Sometimes I have a FLOOD and I always carry a change of clothes in my trunk. I will take any suggestions. I am also anemic.

Why do I crave Ramen Noodles with Spaghetti sauce on them?
we have no decent food in the house so I eat Ramen Noodles without the spices but I am not pregnant I am just on messed up evil birth control Loestrin 24 fe which wants to ruin my life like every other pill I have to take like seroquel, and Lamictal and I am really moody and I don’t get periods but I get discharge every day now. What the ****? I am NOT pregnant the urine test said no and I haven’t taken a blood test. Am I going through Perimenopause early or Premenopause or something?

Lately I’ve been getting what people tell me are hot flushes. I started to notice it during the hot weather in East Anglia several weeks ago. I felt like my body was suddenly losing its ability to regulate its temperature. I thought it was just because of the heat and ignored it, but people are telling me it’s not normal, and today I had two or three more even though it’s cooled off. I’ve read that hot flushes in teenagers are normal in moments of anxiety, panic, anger or embarrassment, but I wasn’t experiencing those emotions at the time, although I was feeling very sad.

My periods are regular and I’m due for my next one in two weeks. I’m only 17, so I think an early menopause is quite unlikely.

What could be causing these? Are they dangerous? Should I speak to my doctor?

I am 20 and me and my hubby have unprotected sex about every 3-4 days. my last period was May 20th. before that i missed 3 periods and my doctor had to give me meds to jump start one because my boobs hurt so bad. about a week and half-2 weeks after my period ended i had some spotting. so now i will have missed 2 periods this thursday. im having mild cramps in my lower pelvic area, my boobs hurt, and in the last week or so ive gotten hungrier and im craving so many things all the time. (mostly brownies or fruit) my cervical mucus is thick white and sticky. i have also been getting hot flashes. I want to know if anyone else has had this problme. could i be pregnant, have PCOD, or early perimenopause. also how likey am i ovulating if im skipping so much?

My doctor prescribed me Provera because I missed a period and before I could go on Birth Control, I had to have one. I took it for 10 days and a week after the last dose I started my period. I’ve been on my period for five days now and while my periods usually last about 5 or 6 days, I was just wondering how long a period typically lasts after taking Provera. Thanks!

I know I won’t be having periods anymore after my hysterectomy, but my question is: During recovery, do you bleed from your vagina?

Any other tips for post-hysterectomy care?
