I started having irregular periods in August 2006, progressively getting worse, after 8 years of on-the-dot 28 day cycles. By February, they were 7-10 days long, 2 weeks apart. My doctor ran bloodtests and put me on Yaz to help regulate me. I have irregular FSH/LH and prolactin levels. He says I do not ovulate regularly, if at all, and prolactin just a little bit higher than normal. (FSH-21.6, LH-73.1, Prolactin 26.6) Is birth control the ONLY way to stop my periods from coming so often? He did a laparoscopy to look for endo, found nothing. A D&C to clean me out, I bled red blood one and a half days after those procedures and have had a stready flow of brown since (3 weeks ago). I hate being on birth control because it makes me very moody and depressed, even very lose dose pills, and if I take just one pill a few hours late it can trigger my period to come within hours. Can anyone help? (Details...)
