We are TTC from last 4 months, In the last two months my wife had a pain in her legs on and off during the whole day, then she staarted to use multi vitamins ( including Folic acid ) and the pain vanished, later last month she again had this twinges like pain in he leges mostly left leg just a week before periods, and this time its around 4 days to her period and she is again having the same pain but on both legs this time... She is also feeling tired and has a bit tender breasts.....Is this again a sign of period ? or it could be implantation or pregnancy sign ? I know we can test it but she is afraid to test before the starting date of next periods ... She never had this pain before her periods when she was unmarried, ......... Another thing I wanna ask, ... I have read that sometimes very early miscarriage can also cause pain, and one cannot even differntiate between that miscarriage and period ? Is this true ? ..............Thanks in advance

I had this last time before my period as well. also i get bowel movements but this time its been very bad. my last period was really heavy.

i haven't been on the pill for over a year and its been only recently my periods are becoming regular. i've read a few questions similar but these ones are either pregnant or IBS.

i've also got PCOS and i'm wondering could this be a cause for my bad stomach pains?

Please help as my doctors are useless.

thanks

When I am on my period, I am always cheerful. I'm not moody at all and always in a good mood. But yes I still cramp really bad. But during the three weeks I'm not on my period, I am extremely bitchy and moody. I feel down during that time also and don't want to be around anyone. Isn't this backwards? Is this something I should see a doctor about?

This is my 7th month of TTC..I have a regular 28 day cycle,and have sex on my ovulation days..that is,from days 13 onwards.Just before my periods come,i have pain and swelling on both my breasts(days 23 -28).So when i start to feel breast pain,i always get dissappointed because i know my period is on its way... So my question is.. Is my breast pain a definite sign that my period is looming ahead, or can i still hope that i could be pregnant despite the breast pain?Will seek medical attention if I don't get pregnant after a year.Also, to those that have chidren after a year or so of trying,did you seek medical attention?..or did it just come naturally?..

so i went to a dietishion a little while ago who told me i have IBS ands its stress related, she put me on AIMS herbal fiber blend which i take everyday in the morning and night when i start to have problems, recently i have been having a really bad spell but its diff to normal pain that i get. i usually get a pain that starts under my ribs and pains down to my abdomen. recently i had pain on the righ side close to where i thought my overies were and not in the normal area i would have pain, i thought that maybe it could have been a cyst. i went to the doc and he prodded and sed that i have an inflamed colon (i thought the colon was on the left hand side??) so he gave me meds as well as an antidepressent for a 10 day course to help with the inflamation on the colon and stress. but its back again after 2 weeks! sharp irritating pain on the right side of adomen.
anyone got this?

I have had this thing on my vagina for about 4-5 weeks now. It started out as just a small lump that felt like a ball under the skin of my outer vagina. It progressivly got bigger and I think infected until it swelled to the size of a large marble(very painful). Eventually it popped and a liquid that had a foul odor to it and looked like a mix of puss and blood came out. It has now gone down in size considerably but it is still there and sometimes still pusses, but now every once in a while it will start to itch really bad and when I itch it it hurts. If someone can help me figure out what this is and how to get rid of it I would really apprecieate it. Thank You!

i have one breast that is probably a b cup. and the other is a D cup.

i've been considering having the smaller one reduced because it's hard to find a bra that works for me, and when i sleep without a bra, the bigger one hurts me a little.

I'm 19, 5'4 130 lbs. ive seen a doc about it and they said because of my age, the smaller one won't catch up to the bigger one. they've been that way for years.

I'm scared of surgery, yet I kind of want to do it??

I was surfing the web ans noticed a few sites where ladies had tested for pregnancy with OPK's, obviously although the test is designed to detect the LH for ovulation, it also detects Hcg as well because there is LH involved somehow with Hcg.

Anyway, my question is this:

Do you read the test like an OPK - the test line must be as dark as or darker then the control?

Do you read the test like and EPT - the test line no matter how faint is a positive test.

I know all of the crap about going to a doctor to make sure, yadda, yadda, yadda.. I just couldn't wait to test, used an OPK, have a faint line and will probably test later this week.

I am on CD 22, 10DPO, on a 30 day cycle.....

Any suggestions??? Until I can get out to buy an EPT??

when i first tried using them, it was uncomfortable, so i took it right out. but a couple years later my cousin told me how she likes using tampons rather pads because when its time 2 "change" you dont have 2 look at all of that nasty blood that spread out everywhere. you just pull out and flush. so that ade me want to start using them. im a virgin and i use REGULAR sized to LITE sized tampons. but a couple of my friends said that im not a virgin anymore.

i think that doesnt ake any sense because tampons are way smaller than a "wee-wee" lol. but i cant help but wonder if its true.
