im wondering if your stomach pains you've been reporting is menstrual related...have you had pains like that before when your period was starting to come? and you say your periods are very irregular? Have you ever had that checked out as to why? do you have a history of PCOS? (poly-cystic-ovarian-syndrome) That causes very irregular periods which often times can be painful due to small cysts on the ovaries..Im just grasping at possibilities here, it could be anything really but that is the first thing that came to my mind when you said your periods have been very irregular.. its actually a pretty common disorder that a lot of women have (i used to be a full time member of feritilty forums years ago when trying to conceive my children and got to learn all the ins and outs of the women's reproductive cycles lol).  Anyways I hope you start feeling better soon and that your anxiety lets up!

don't know if this helps any but i know a couple of girls that stopped having periods because they were anorexic (i'm sure that is spelled wrong-ha)
was your diet really bad on the pills?
they got their periods back when they started eating more.

WOW Ton. Hows your belly doing. Did your belly ache feel like cramps? Are you on birth control? Sorry not my strong suit but have 3 sisters , a daughter and a wife. Have you googled yet? Someone will come along with an answer for you. I wish I could help you.
