Do prenatal vitamins help with hormonal imbalance?




I’m pretty sure i have a hormonal imbalance because of how irregular my periods have always been. I haven’t had it in four months now, and when i took a pregnancy test a month and a half ago it was negative, but yesterday and today i got positive. I am going to see my doctor on Friday, but after reading that hormonal imbalance is a common cause of miscarriage, my fiance is going to pick me up some prenatal vitamins at the store today, just to be on the safe side. Any that help with a hormonal imbalance just in case i really do have one?
I stopped with all of the junk food and fast food about 3 months ago, so i already eat right. That’s really all you need to do??

Period??????????




I usually have a normal period. It lasts anywhere from 5-7 days, and I have one every month. I stopped taking my birth control last month, so I had two periods. Me and my husband have had unprotected sex alot lately, we want to get pregnant, but all of the pregnancy test have showed negative. My last period was on June 24 and today is July 26. Is it still to early to tell if I am pregnant, or am I not getting my period because of the birth control? Can someone please help me?????????????

PregnancY????




I am almost 2 weeks late on getting my period. I’m on B/c been on it for about a ;year.. I took a pregnancy test when i was a week late and it came back Negative…

Also, 2 days ago i had white discharge, Could i be pregnant or will i get my period soon>>
yes I’ve had sex. and i have an appointment this week so i was waiting till then
There is still a chance even though i took a test and it said negative??
the worrying part is easier said than done.. I do let him go in side of me..
is that the whole point of b.c. is so you dont have to use condoms.. at you make it sound like i’m a little kid and i’m not… 1% of getting pregnant is very unlikely..
No, other symptoms besides late period.. If i’m getting sick could that effect my period also..




I know a pregnancy test is the only way to find out but it’s a little early for one and I have bad pms but some of the symptoms i’m getting are way off base for me. I practice safe sex so please don’t lecture me on it. I’m anxious and scared and don’t know what i’m going to do. so is there any way to tell the difference between pms and pregnancy symptoms?

Could I be starting menopause?




I was wondering if any of you ladies on here who have already gone through menopause would tell me if when your period DOES end, can it just SUDDENLY END? I’m 48 years old and as of yet have not had any of the symptoms you read about (hot flashes, etc) but my period normally comes like clockwork and now I am almost a week late. And I’m not having any of the symptoms I normally usually get before my period comes, like headaches and feeling bloated.

I took a pregnancy test today and it came back negative.




but….. i am being sick almost every two nights and feel sick in the daytime for about nearly 2 weeks now. I also get hot flushes and feel shaky. When i did the pregnancy test me and my mum wasnt sure if we read it right as the instructions and the diagrams were confusing. Please Help.

What can stop a period besides pregnancy?




I’m going to the doctor next tuesday but I want to know what can stop my period besides pregnancy because I’ve taken 3 pregnancy test. Two on the day that I missed my period and today in the morning. Any answers would be very helpful.
Not currently on birth control and no more stress then usual.




I got off my birth control pills on May 27, 2007. I started my period on or around the 30th of May. The next month, my period started on the 28th. So, around a 30 day cycle. It is now day 30 of this cycle, and so far no period. I had an irregular cycle before I started on birth control in November 2004. I am pretty healthy, normal weight and no STDs or any problems that would affect my lady parts.

My husband and I had unprotected sex on day 13, 15, 17 and 20 of my cycle.

I have had some cramps, a tad bit of nausea (which I am blaming on my multivitamin) and some pain around my breasts. Today I also had some more discharge (clear with a tad bit of white) than normal from my private areas. I took a pregnancy test on Friday morning but it was completely negative.

Any advice? How long did it take for your period to return to normal after getting off the pill? Is this normal?




I was supposed to have ovulated around the 12th of May, but I think by reading my "signs" I actually ovulated closer to the 16th. My husband and I had unprotected intercourse around both of those days (a day before or on the day). I was calculated to have my period on the 25th (when I ovulated on the 12th), and I am now 5 days late. On the 25th I have a few tiny pink drops of blood, so I assumed I was starting my period, but it has now been five days and I have had no other bleeding. I took a pregnancy test on the 26 that came back negative. I was wondering if anyone knew if that little drop could count as my period, or if I could possibly be pregnant even after the pregnancy test came back negative. My breasts are really sore and extremely sensitive, and they have never felt this way with my periods.

Any suggestions are welcome! Thanks a lot!




I am one week late on my period. I took a pregnancy test and it showed negative. Since my hormone level were low with my last pregnancy, could this cause the test to show negative? Would the OB/GYN office be able to get an accurate test before it’s too late to start me on progesterone? I’m afraid if I am pregnant, I might lose it because my hormone levels are so low.




I’m on day 8 of the 10 day pills. I’m on these natural hormone ones. I think they are called Prometrium or something like that. My doctor didn’t give an exact time when my period would start up. So, I was wondering if any of you out there have taken this, and if you started your period during the time you were taking the pills, or perhaps after. If after, about how many days after you stopped taking the pills? I know there is a very very slight chance that I could be pregnant, but as of two days ago, I was testing negative. But I’m just wondering how long is a normal time for your period to resume after the pills before I need to either retest, or go in and see my doctor.
My doctor did have me take a pregnancy test before I started taking them. I actually asked her what would happen if I was pregnant, if it would cause any harm. She said they actually use this hormone to help sustain a pregnancy, so that no, it wouldn’t cause any harm.

Premature menopause… help!?




Ok im 16. Not a virgin. Me and my boyfriend have intercourse for the past 5 months and it’s been fine. But recently I’ve noticed changes in my body. And my boyfriend looked it up and was extremely worried that i had a lot of symptoms of premature menopause. Without going into detail but i have mood swings (ok im a teenager but they have gotten extreme), dry eyes and dry mouths, irregular periods (i’ve always had that since i was 14 i will have them randomly and not too often), down below not creating much fluids very dry, intercourse is quite painful due to it being t!ght (it wasn’t that much before), weight loss but the thing that doesn’t fit in is my breasts are so much bigger within the space of a week i must have gone up a cup size. I took a pregnancy test it wasn’t it came up negative. Is it premature menopause or anything else it could be? I can’t easily access a doctor so i would just like your thoughts for now please.

hormonal imbalance or ceasing vitex or what?




im not sure what is going on with my body! basically i have never been regular – usually between 2 and 3 months apart, never the same amount of days between them. i read about vitex so started taking it but stopped after about 3-4 months. my period had actually began to be regular – at about 5 weeks but still more often than i was used to. im in late 20s by the way.
anyway got my period as normal after stopping vitex then 2 weeks later got period again. my partner and i had one night between these 2 periods but we were very careful.
i got scared it may have been implantation bleeding so took a pregnancy test approx 2 weeks later and it came back negative.
now waiting on my period again. it has been about 5 weeks since the last bleed. for the past 2 wks have got symptoms i was putting down to pms but still no period. is it hormonal imbalance? should i go back on vitex? what else can help? i saw dr who suggested iron tablets for my fatigue or pill (which i dont want to go on).
tired of feeling crap with pms symptoms!!
