I am 24 years of age and have had history of irregular periods but the following explains to a sense of what has happened and what is currently happening.

I have not experienced any periods like the one I am experience now. I have had them for more than 2-3 weeks but they have been heavy, light, with regular clotting, and to an extent they just have never been this abnormal. I have an appointment with my regular Endroconoligist and my OBGYN... just basically wanting to get an idea what I may be in store for. I have had a cyst before and I have been told that I can get them again. But, If it's a cyst its different and I had no period for 7-8 months when I had the cyst. So, I don't know... reason I am on here today.

I need to talk to a Doctor about my menstrual periods. I have been on Progestergone and switched to a progestergone/estrogen pill then switched brands a month ago. I have had a period for almost 4 weeks now. Twice I have spotted within a day to two days. My cramps have been pretty intense and my period was very heavy. Normally I clot severely but I have only clotted twice within the 4 weeks for maybe a day. I am still cramping but no clotting. Now all of a sudden my period is a bright orangish color. I want to know if I should do something right away or if this can be risk of pregnancy even though I am on birth control?

Fibromyalgia, PCOS, and I have had irregular periods since I was 13. I had lesion on my cervix and they were pre-cancerous. CIN III. My next pap came back normal. Before my episode with the CIN 3 I had not had a period for 7-8 months. I found out about a cyst in the 8th month then was diagnosed with pre-cancerous cells. This was about 5-6 months ago. I was put on progestergone, then switch to that and estrogen. Found out in Jan that I had a Vitamin D definciency. I have now been on Vitamin D3 5000 IUs a day and my progestergone/estrogen (lowest dose) for almost 4 months.

This site is open to all to answer, and a doctor may not be watching. Several nurses and pregnancy experts. I think all will tell you to wait for your next appointment, since you have so much history. It could take a book to cover it all. You might ease your mind with medical sites that you search by the keywords in all your conditions.
