Extra Long Cycle
I dont think anybody else has a period like mine. I have been on my cycle since school started in August. It is now February 18 2009 and Im still on. I dont get cramps and Im not heavy at all. I just dont understand what is going on. I have never had a normal cycle they have always been long but this is the longest. I need help!!! Is there anything I can do???
Thank U!!! My mom was waiting to take me to the doctor after it stopped (who knows how long that would be) but she did tell me that the doctor would put me on birth control It really helps me 2 kno Im not the only person this has ever happened to because the first thing I thought was Im only 16 what is going on. But I really do thank u for your support
Wow. I have also had my period since about a week before school started in August...but mine does tend to be heavy. I don't have cramps either. I just went to the doctor yesterday, and if you haven't gone to the doctor, you should. You could get anemic. Have you been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome? Insulin resistance? You could have a hormonal imbalance...estrogen dominance and low progesterone. Have you ever been on birth control? If not, the doctor will probably put you on it. They just started me on Femcon Fe. It could also be a more serious problem such as a uterine fibroid. All I can say is work up the nerve, and go the doctor. If you could give any more info...then I might be able to tell you more.
