Hey, my general cycle is between 28-39 days. And I get ovulation discharge and symptoms from day 12-17.

This cycle I am getting ovulation discharge since day 9. Today is day 10 and I have ovulation symptoms like high cervix and egg white discharge. Can a cycle suddenly change? Is it normal? Isn't it too early?

Question

I’m concerned about experiencing heavy menstrual bleeding and passing large blood clots, no pain involved just the heavy bleeding and huge clots, what could this be

Hi! so i’m a 21 F, i was wondering if this is anything to be worried about? i just got my period yesterday & woke up to use the bathroom & seen this. I’ve never had one so big so it’s a lil concerning. My period was atleast 4-5 days early last cycle. This cycle is 1 day early.

She suffers from something called “Period Flu” it’s really knocked her this time. She’s achy all over, can barely move from room to room, sensitive to lights and has horrible headaches, she can’t even sleep well. What can I do? What can she take to make her feel better especially for the achy joints, we’re in the UK too if that’s helps

Hello, i'm an 18 year old from germany and im having problems with my current pads always. I've heard that they cause problems with a lot of people and I feel like i'm one of them. Whenever I wear them I have a uti similar burning sensation. It's really uncomfortable to the point I have to cry because I can't do anything else, especially in school. Any recommendations what pads I should get that preferably aren't with any chemicals or perfumes?

I’m a 29F and have had periods lasting 4-5 days most of my life. This year my period length kind of changed to only a 3 day long cycle with the second day being super heavy flow and the third day being almost nothing. My cycles are pretty regular, on average 28 days long with ovulation occuring mostly on day 15 (I’ve been tracking my period with BBT). I’m going to the checkup soon but have any of you had this experience? Is this just some hormonal shift? I was wondering if this means low progesterone but I am not sure. I am also wondering if there is any correlation with fertility.

This could totally just be me or whatever but does anyone else feel overstimulated/uncomfortable when you wear a pad to bed and you can quite literally feel the blood flowing out of you? I’m a regular tampon wearer since I was 16 but can’t bring myself to wear one to bed. Any advice or suggestions? I’ve heard period underwear might help or even switching to a diva cup. Just want to know if there’s anyone else that feels the way I do? It’s crazy and it’s always worse on the first night I have my period. Could I just be overthinking it?

So maybe for about..2 years? I've noticed these chunks of what seems like tissue from inside of my body coming out of my vagina, literally the size of a piece of meat, like a bite!

It doesn't hurt when they come out of me, but it's almost like the last second right before a tampon comes out, or when you all of a sudden get a giant glob of discharge and you can feel it, its sudden and gives a bit of a startle but that's it. You can just pick it up out of the pad (sometimes it comes out into the pad, lately though I've been peeing them out because for some reason, the blood, blood clots and discharge from while I'm on my period haven't been coming out fully when not peeing) rinse it off and there it is, just a piece of...uterus?? I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS! And no I do not have a picture. Don't ask please.

this is just a random vent and i don't need advice or anything, i'm just so sick of periods and i've been bleeding so heavily for the past two days. i bled through on my bed these last two nights and i need to wear two pads to bed tonight because of that, and i just seriously don't wanna go back to school (had a week break). what if i don't have the time to change pads? and generally i'm just so tired i won't have motivation for any of this. ughhhh it makes me sick :( anywho though thanks to whoever read this post that i put no effort into, gn

this never happened to me also i noticed a lot of changes in my period flow, I don’t wanna go to an obgyn unless Im sure.

Hi everyone my cycle just recently became regular around 6-7 months ago. I used to go 2-3 months without periods and typically have had heavy flow with mild symptoms. My current period started Nov 22, extremely light and spotting. I am still bleeding but now the blood appears brown almost black, yet I havent experienced any symptoms of my period. Am i still shedding blood and experiencing a 10 day period or am i ovulating now as my Flo prediction says? I am wondering what the reason is for the changes? Is it normal cycle changes or should i be concerned with the change in my period? I am 19, vegetarian, not on birth control

y’all ever start your period in the middle of the night and never know which day to consider it started on???? ughh😭 anyways i just started my period at 11:53pm & the day is over obviously so should i consider it as started “ today “ december 1st or “ tomorrow “ december second since the day is technically over!! sorry if that’s confusing lmfao

Hi guys so i’m 18 years old (not sure if that’s important) but for the past few years i’ve been experiencing very bad period pain. Like today i got my period and the pain was really bad and i threw up like 5 times and fainted. I’m not sure if that’s normal or not but idk what to do because my parents don’t wanna take me to the doctors because my mom says i’m being overdramatic

Hey all, I'm worried and thought it'd be better to ask than just rely on Google I get regular periods usually, sometimes off by a few days but I just recently completely missed one and just now started spotting with heavy cramps. There's no way I'm pregnant (I'm a virgin and don't have any sort of intercourse) but I'm still worried and don't quite know what to think of it or do. Is this normal? Going to a doctor is difficult as my parents don't think it's of any concern but I'm seriously worried. The cramps yesterday were worse than what I usually get during my period

Ive been taking birth control continueously for 1 and a half months now but 23 days ago i started bleeding and still didnt stop. It started only after 9 days after my period where i started the birthcontrol. The blood is brownish/reddish but not thaaaat much but still a good amount, normal underwear without a liner isnt enough. Its also been giving me Medium to strong cramps. Has anyone of u ever experienced that and if yeah then what did u do? I dont want to stop taking birth control cause of my strong regular period which is the cause why i even started taking bc continueously :/. Its so annoying and the cramps are so uncomfortable. Im taking a combination pill with the hormones Ethinylestradiol and Dienogest.

What does everyone recommend for a ph balancing medicine or home remedy?

I had to pull over and be picked up, I couldn’t drive the pain and nausea was so bad, and I was shaking uncontrollably… I had a panic attack because I thought something could’ve been seriously wrong as this was not normal for me, then my hands started tingling?? Midol didn’t work, the only thing that helped was the heating pad. I have a light flow although my first two days are like medium flow. I debated going to urgent care but I tried relaxing with the heating pad for a few to see if I couldn’t get it to calm down. I had an iced coffee before I realized I started (today was my first day), I hadn’t eaten yet and I was pretty dehydrated so I know that didn’t help! My cramps are less intense now but they are still slightly there like twinges, haven’t fully gone away. I’m not sexually active nor on birth control. I’m 25yo and have NEVER had symptoms that intense. Has anyone else experienced this? Do you know what this could be? Was it just my bad habits for the day? Do I absolutely need to see my dr?

Hi everyone. I am 24 about to turn 25 and I’ve always had a bit of moderate cramping when on my period and it’s been a bit worse in my early 20’s. My cycle is normally 30-31 days. I got my period when I was 11 and it’s always been regular except for when I came off the pill a few months later it went Mia for 2 months and then I struggled with longer cycles for about 6 months and then it started to go back to normal. I started inositol which helped regulate it even more to 30-31 days. However, this month I had a 27 day cycle. I’m bleeding the same as I normally do but I have essentially no cramps at all except a few last night before I started full flow. But normally the first day of my period is very crampy. Is this normal or could it mean something is off? I still had spotting a bit before which I normally have and acne as well as some slight mood changes. But it feel so weird having a period and not feeling and discomfort in my abdomen. Has anyone else experienced this ?

Hi all, I’m 3 days late, I saw spotting yesterday but nothing today. I have been having really bad nausea since last week. I’m sometimes late but the nausea has been a lot worse this time around. Especially after I eat food. :( Anyone else have this? And what helps?

My periods are usually very heavy at first and take at least 5 days to completely finish. But this week, my period was very light and it started lessening on the third day where I woke up to nothing on my pad when there should be something. I haven't had any sex ever so I'm not sure if I should be worried about this.

Every time that my period is a day late or early I get horrible cramps, I've talked to my friends and this doesn't happen to them. When this happens I'll have a hot water bottle on my stomach and have taken at least two Panadol (500mg each) and will also have a microwaveable heating pack in between my thighs, on top of all of this I get nausea but with all this ill still have pains that would feel like a normal day period's cramps with anything pain relief if that make sense. (This is my second year of having my period )

(i dont know where to post this but i just wanna say it) i cant believe this happened and just remembered it. someone i knew when we were younger had never put a tampon in so e and my friends instructed them how to put one in they did it and we all cheered. Later they came over to me and told me it was hurting i was like "it shouldnt hurt?" and they said "well after the fourth one.." AND I WAS LIKE "AFTER THE 4TH ONE?!?!?!?" so yeah they had 5 tampons in somehow. lol just wanted to share

got my result rn it’s says in the impression secretory phase endometrium what does it mean? the gyne also said that i’m in the ovulation but I keep getting the brownish discharge

I'm calling my obgyn tomorrow but wanted some insights for how I can advocate for myself. I just turned 27 in November.

I've been having weird periods for 2 years now since my birth control manufacturer was changed. I used to be like clockwork - second Monday of the month, I'd start my period. Really heavy the first 2 days and spotting for 3-5 days.

Manufacturer changed. Periods started to be closer and shorter. 6 months later it's basically random. I then start having issues with ovarian cyst ruptures. GP takes me off of birth control to try to let my body regulate itself. 4 months - no change.

We've now gone through 2 other birth controls and it's getting worse. I'm going through the full pre-period stuff of mood swings (beyond my bipolar), hormonal acne breakouts, etc. I'm also extremely fatigued all of the time. My GP's bloodwork comes back fine. Thyroid is okay. Just a really low vitamin D level.

I spoke with another provider for insights on what she'd suggest. She suggested a hormone panel and imaging outside of my uterus. Or an exploratory procedure to rule out endometriosis. My mom had fibroids.

My periods have been tarrey and flakey rather than crimson and flowy. I can almost constantly smell myself even though I keep myself clean. Not bad but musky? I don't know how to explain it. The scent my vagina would produce when im very aroused

What are your thoughts on how I can advocate for myself and ask the right questions?

Oh also! The cyst ruptures stopped when we brought birth control back. I still get little twinges of ovarian pain but nothing I can't breathe through.

hi! i am nearing my period, but have recently gotten out of an anxiety fueled pregnancy scare (lol) my last period began on Nov. 6th. i started getting period symptoms such as my ankles hurting, back hurting, and arms hurting. as of around a day or two ago, my breasts have began to hurt. i usually get this symptom, but the time i get it before my period fluctuates. do you think this is a definite sign my period will be here very soon? thank you :) !

Ok so for some background I'm a 23yo female haven't been on birth control since early 2023. In the month of November I have had 3 periods. WHY. I have been with the same partner for 3years! We both are extremely faithful to eachother and I had a papsmear/std testing about 9months ago and everything was completely normal so it's not anything like that! In general my periods aren't the most regular but l usually have one every 2-3months. Well this month I started a period on November 2-7 (completely normal looking period), then another on November 18-24 (lighter than usual but still consistent flow, but also mostly brown color with loooots of flaking tissue) then started again November 29 (same brown blood with tons of flakey tissue. Anyone else hao this happen before? Any ideas on what it could be? It's incredibly annoying and I'd like it to stop lol!
