Spotting But No Period Posted: 08-09-07 17:33pm
So, I have had consistant periods that
started on the 18th and ended on the 22nd.
It was that way for about 6 - 7 months. So
last month I dont get anything until the
31st, and then it was only a few spots. I
have been spotting since then. its been
about 10 days. I havent spotted every
single day but I havent had an actual
flow. The last time I had sex on was May
1st and I have had 3 periods since then so
I dont think Im pregnant. Any suggestions
on how to make get it to start?
I was told that having sex around the due
date of a period is a good way. Any
thoughts on that?

Not really sure if there is a sort of CURE
to start a period, my husband swears that
SEX will start it! Sometimes he's
right......If you don't have a period this
month, I would get a preg. test. I spotted
the next two months I found out I was
pregnant.......that was a LONG time ago.
Just wear condoms and use every
precaution......At least I responded!

I would go talk to your gynecologist
before taking any action to kick-start
your period. A gynecologist is the person
who will know the safest way to do this.
It sounds like you *just* started getting
your period this year/last year. Your
cycle may start out steady and then
change; it will not be "set in stone"
until you're about 19 or 20 and finally
finishing puberty. I personally had my
first period, and then didn't have one
fore another 5 months. It slowly got
shorter and shorter until my usual cycle
was about 35 days long. So it may be that
your cycles are lengthening.

Sex won't necessarily jump start your
period. Sometimes if it's around period
time, an orgasm will push out blood
(uterine contractions) that you may not
have known was still in there (usually at
the end of your period). But sex won't
cause the hormone fluctuations that are
necessary for ovulation and menstruation.
