Bleeding black blood
For the past two months, a week before I started my period, I started bleeding a light brown color. When my period did start, I was bleeding black blood. I've also been having real bad abdomal pain upper and lower even when I'm not having my period. I've been taking Ortho Novum for a year and my period has never been like this. Could you please tell me the reason or what I have done that would cause this to happen?
my bad.... started to write something, got side tracked, and the bottom part didnt get deleted...
I started to say that the book tells about our Society being Estrogen Dominant. Since I know that i have experienced over 3/4 of the symptoms of Estrogen Dominance, including all of the above symtoms and more... yeast problems, short term memory problems--which started around the pregnancy's, and everyone told me was just stress.... etc...
Almost all my symptoms at one time or another has been written off as in my head, or stress related... and I am tired of hearing that...
I am convinced from my own experiences, and experimentation with the Progesterone Cream, that I am onto something, that Dr. Lee is On to something... That women are all too often encouraged to get hysterectomy's to relieve their symptoms.
I failed to mention earlier, My Mom had a hysterectomy in her 30's because she had a grapefruit sized non-cancerous tumor removed. At which time they did a hysterectomy on her. After that she experienced symptoms that I can recall---Facial Hair being one of them, I remember the most. Wiry Chin Hairs, and her pulling them... out regularly.
My Mom, eventually was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, and had to have a Mysectomy. She then sucummed to the Cancer, as it masticised (spread all over, because they cut the tissue and cancer was introduced into the blood stream) ... This was in the late 70's early 80's... and she has now been gone 20 years.... She is not here for me to question about the other symptoms, but I recall that she had weight gain, and became depressed, and moody---which she never had been before they did the hysterectomy... So I assume it was probably related to Hormonal Imbalance created by the hysterectomy.
My Point is this..... Dont settle for its Normal, or its in your head.... Listen to your body, get answers, get solutions.... press on..... not worth living like I did miserably for 7+ years....

Hi, Lee here in Orlando.
Yep, I’ve got all the symptoms you described C. I have been very regular with my periods all my life, marking them on my calendar – you could set a clock by them. But guess what? I’ve been bleeding black blood since December 27, 2007 and am still bleeding and it’s January 14, 2008. I am in my 40’s and know with what I’ve studied thus far, it’s because I have too much Estrogen in my body. Got to balance it all out.
Will give you an update in near future on research and results.
You're not alone.
Bye for now Lee.

Do you think 'black blood' could be related to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome? I have many of the symptoms you describe, and i know POS creates or is a symptom of a hormone imbalance. However, i am in my 20's - I'm worried about being menopausal....

So I'm scared bn havin pains when I pee think its a UTI but now m discharging black blood, its like I'm on my period again n its not even time. M freakin out. I'm on medication for d UTI but I wanna know if d black blood is normal.
I have this problem also, I am spotting black thick gross blood. This is around the time I was supposed to get my period. So I am guessing I am having a strange period of just old blood or something. About a month ago I started have left abdominal pain, like right near my hip. I was worried I had a urinary tract infection or something. I am so annoyed going to the doctor.
Because a couple of years ago... I went back and forth between a serious yeast infection and bacteria vaginosis. They would give me medication for the yeast infection and then the bacteria would come back and then they would give me antibiotics and then I would have to come back for the medication for that. I got so frustrated that I just stopped going to the doctor and I ended up having to shower three times a day, take sugar out of my diet, and ocassionally buy the Miconazole Nitrate 7 day cream.
So ... it's been two years later and I start having that pain in my left side of my abdomen and I start bleeding black blood. It's very strange. Oh, and my abdominal cramps before and after I menstruate are the worst! Until I started drinking a tbsp of Molasses everyday. It tastes gross after a while but it works for my abdominal pain. Try it!! It can't hurt anything.
But I still can't figure out why I am bleeding black blood. And the blood flow is really light too. I usually have REALLY heavy flow periods.

This is really gross I've been like bleeding black blood, I mean it started as a normal period then it started changing colors and I'm not really sure what to do. Some people are telling me to go to the doctor but other are telling me that is Just old blood. It been happen now for almost three months is that normal or should i have that checked out?
