Eiri, Help! My Cycle Is Whacked! Posted: 09-06-07 12:06pm
I don't know why I think you are the
supreme authority on this, but you seem so
knowledgeable about these sorts of things,
so here goes.
I had my period 2 weeks ago for 5-6 days.
Then a week later, I got it again, and
this is day number 4. It seems aa little
bit lighter than it has been, but jeez,
enough is enough already. What's going
on? I am not on any birth control. Could
it just be all the stress?

Lmao. I'm bad at remembering histories, so
here goes.
If you've recently gotten off of birth
control, funny cycles are normal.
An odd cycle can be due to stress and a
whole host of other things. Some women get
lots of periods and some women have a few.
It is surely annoying! As long as you're
not soaking through pads in minutes it's
pretty normal, and all I think a gyno
could do would be to prescribe bcp's to
regulate it.
I have heard of a pill that stimulates
ovulation but I don't think it's used to
stabilize cycles.

I haven't been on BC since I got prego
with Hannah, so that's ruled out. It must
be stress. The stress of constantly
having AF visit!
