I'm not looking for medical advice, I'm scheduling a doctor's appointment in the next couple days... but I'm wondering if anyone has experienced the same type thing. I hadn't gotten my period in two years. I got it really light in September. And then for the past three weeks I've had it. At first it was light, but for several days it's been very heavy. When I get periods, they're typically very heavy, so the heaviness I'm not so worried about.... it's the length of time in addition to the heaviness. I don't want to become anemic! :rolleyes2: Can anyone else relate to this type experience?

I had a two and a half week break, then it started up again, and it is HEAVY! Like, changing tampons EVERY HOUR! Crazy. So, after getting annoyed of going to Walgreens practically every day, I went to costco and got me MAJOR boxes of tampons and pads. I'm pretty sure I have a three month supply. (Embarassingly enough, on my way out the door, I saw my boss's boss... so bad, but who cares, I have a BOATLOAD!) :smile2:

Good luck slim... I feel ya.

Costco was a GREAT deal too, about half (or even less) than in the regular stores. I spend 12 dollars for 84 tampons... Tampax Pearl, my fave's.

Oh man...I've never had a problem with my period...even with PCOS. I have always gotten my period every 28 days...UNTIL NOW! I've had my period five times in 2 months. I went to see my ob/gyn two weeks ago and she said that it was normal and went on to explain that the drastic fluxuation in estrogen levels causes it and will eventually stablize. I thought it was going to start again yesterday, but I only spotted for a few hours.

Thanks, I will go to our Sam's Club and get their huge box. I hadn't thought of that. I buy Tampax Pearl, too. I will be really glad when this part is OVER!

Amen to that! I'm going crazy!

Now if only I can find a BIG BOX of Midol! lol... I never knew I was this PMSy... but I've got all the classic symptoms.

My husband wishes I could find a truck load! If you find that BIG BOX, please let me know!
