I am a little worried and wondering if anyone could help me out. I would rather find some answer before going to a doc, becuase for many reasons i do not like or trust doctors or there opinions.
Some of you may remember that i have PCOS (cysts on my ovaries) i have been trying many years to get pregnant with no avail, been on drugs have had tests so on and o forth. I have anything but a regular cycle. My last period before dec 26th was april 7th. My doc for some reason didn't see a problem with it.
Anyway on dec 26th i got a period wasnt to bad, last bout 6 days, not too heavy or anything. Then on jan 16th i got another period and my goodness it ws something else. i was in incredble amounts of pain, it was VERY VERY heavy, lots of clots, and it lasted 9 days with 8 out of those nine days being incredibly heavy. On jan 25 th it ended finally. well today feb 2nd i am bleeding again. it is BRIGHT red. not like reg period blood, but i am cramping, and very uncomfortable. its not too heavy but you know its there.
WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH ME. i am worried that there is something horribly wrong? or is it my body trying to be regular. anyone have any idea? i am frustrated, scared, and don't have much faith iin my doctor and am scared to even look for another one.
thanks so much and sorry for the tmi

Ok dear...here is what I found... courtesy of yahoo health:
ReplyDeleteContact Your Doctor if any of the following occurs [this is if you have PCOS]
If you are between 20 and 40 years old, see your doctor if you have:
Menstrual cycles that are consistently less than 21 days apart or more than 35 days apart.
Regular menstrual cycles but you have been trying unsuccessfully to become pregnant for more than 12 months.
Vaginal bleeding that lasts more than 8 days; large clots; or excessive spotting.
Pelvic pain that lasts for more than 4 weeks.
Excessive hair growth or hair growing on the chest, back, belly, or face (hirsutism).
Any symptoms of diabetes, such as increased thirst and frequent urination (especially at night), unexplained increase in appetite, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, blurred vision, or tingling or numbness in your hands or feet.
Skin problems such as acne, oily skin, dandruff, skin tags (acrochordons) in the armpits or neck area, or dark skin patches (acanthosis nigricans) in skin folds or on the neck, groin, or underarms.
Depression or mood swings. Many women may have emotional problems related to the many physical symptoms of PCOS, such as excess hair, obesity, or infertility.
Excess weight gain or upper body obesity (more abdominal fat than hip fat). This is also known as android obesity and is related to increased male hormone (testosterone) levels.
