Hi,
I was having a problem with figuring out what forum to post this in, because it appeared the other forums cost $22 to get a question answered. But maybe I didn't look carefully enough.
I am 43 years old. I seriously doubt if I am pregnant, although I guess the possibililty exists. But lets just say that I have never become pregnant in the past with no birth control. I suspect it is linked to my IgA deficiency, which I was told at a very young age after testing made me a highly unlikely candidate for pregnancy as the secretions in my vagina attack and kill whatever is in there as a defense to my IgA deficiency. I have very high levels of igM and gammaglobulins which appear to work in overtime to compensate for my lack of IgA. Anyway, this is probably to scientific and more information than anyone wants to know.
I started to bleed yesterday. Bright red blood, still bleeding today. Not like a regular period, but heavier than spotting.I have never had an irregular period since I was 16 years old. Very regular, very normal, never any spotting issues. This seems heavier than spotting. This started 1-1/2 weeks after the completion of what I thought was a normal period. So I am pretty freaked out. Is this premenapause? Freak pregnancy that managed to get through and stick? The strange thing is, after I finished my last period 1-1/2 weeks ago, almost immediately I had really sore and tender breasts like I was ovulating. Then it went away, and low and behold this week I am bleeding. So I don't think it is cancer or anything, because of the sore breasts last week. But maybe I'm just conning myself. Who can say. Please advise.
So, obviously I am worried.
