I just got my period for the 3rd time this month

Hi there -

I am 34 years old and today I got my period for the third time this month.  Before making an appointment at the obgyn I thought I would write in and see if any one might know what's going on with me..pretty sure that this is not normal and definitely not a good sign..

thanks

Hey there I am 21 years old and I had the same problem in March 2007. My period started 3 times. I have been to many doctors and even the hosiptal, and nobody still has no idea what is wrong with me. I started my period again on April 15 and as of today I am still bleeding very heavy with alot of clots and cramping. I have another GYN appointment May 7th, to see what is going on.
As a possibilty your hormones could be out of balance, you could have a cyst, or maybe your thyroid, or anything. Deffinetly get to your GYN to see what is causing you to start bleeding again.

I'm sorry I couldn't have been more helpful, but I just wanted to let you know that your not the only going through this type of problem.
