Abnormal "Cycle" (not the usual story.. I dont think)
Hi there, For a little background info first: I am 33, have had my tubes tied for almost 12 years, am not on birth control .Ever since I got my tubes tied my periods have been like clock work , I have cramped REALLY bad , especially the first day, and really heavy (really red).Never late, never missed. And my periods have ALWAYS lasted only 3 days , all my life (got my first one at 10).. The Problem: I did not have a period in August, then had it in September a few days after the usual date it should come.Normal Symptoms I usually have, and same length of cycle. No period in October. November 26th I started light spotting - that brownish color . Thinking ok, here it comes- gonna be bad since I missed a month.. No cramps at all (very very strange to me) . Then it seemed as if it really wasn't starting. But I was spotting off and on . Nothing on my clothes, just on the tissue paper. Well, here it is day 7 .. Still spotting - varies between the light pink and brown color , still nothing on clothes , just a lil on tissue . my left ovary area has felt "tender" Earlier today I went to the restroom because I was feeling weak,and the ovary area tenderness started . Nothing on my clothes, barely a spot on tissue, but looked in toilet and water was slightly pink. Now, not but an hour ago I went to the restroom and the toilet water was completely red , with dark red clots (or one big one, couldnt tell) - and still just smudging on tissue - nothing getting on my clothes. I've never had a "period" last this long , and it's beginning to worry me. I did take a pregnancy test back in August when I missed, which was negative- and Im not even sure if it would show up since my tubes are tied? I dont understand what could be going on . ANy ideas?? Thanks -
If you were pregnant it would show on the test even if it were an ectopic pregnancy. I've had two and one ruptured fallopian tube which required emergency surgery. You said you are experiencing pain in your ovary, what does it feel like?Before you talk about what you want ~ Be happy with what you have -
Hormonious, Thanks for the info on that one matter . As for the pain in my ovary, it's not really "pain" per say , but more so of an uncomftorableness.. feels tender , and kind of like pressure on it - no stabbing pain or anything like that . Oh, and here's day ten and Still going on, except its not just spotting now .Comment
