Hello all,
I know there are a lot of threads addressing irregular periods, but I have a few more questions.
For the last 4 years or so, I've only been getting my period about every other month. It lasts around 4 days, no big deal for me. 2 years ago I did have an exam & was told I was healthy in that area.
Well, this time, I haven't had a period since May. I finally had something at the start of this month, that seemed like regular period, but only lasted 2 days. Then nothing. Then a few days later... spotting... then I've got the normal flow again. So I've been bleeding pretty much since the 9th of this month, off & on.
Now, I have been very stressed the last few months, & have been over-exercising myself. I know those can be factors. I also have had 2 UTI's, so I'm wondering if that could be a factor at all?
I also have heard of premenopause (or maybe it's called perimenopause... ) but I think that's supposed to start in early 30's or so, & I'm only 24. Could it be that?
Any advice, I appreciate, thank you! :)
