My period almost always starts around the same time every month and is always very heavy on day 1, semi-heavy on day 2 and light on day 3 (and sometimes 4). In December it started a couple of days later than normal and was extremely light for about 4 days. When I say light, I mean that it was barely enough blood to fill 1 PANTY LINER in a whole day. In January, it "started" about 15 days later than normal and lasted for about 1 day. The problem is that it was not even enough blood to even get on my panties. I only new I was bleeding because it was on the toilet paper when I wiped. In February I didn't even have one of these so called periods. I have taken about 10 pregnancy tests throughout the last 3 months, but they have all been negative. I was preg. twice before and knew I was preg. both times within a couple of weeks of conception. This is different.
Another strange symptom is that my hair has been thinning majorly over the past year. I mean MAJORLY thinning and I am only 25!

By the way. I am not looking for a cure on this forum. I just wanted to see if anyone else has had these symptoms or if anyone can give me some ideas on what to research. I just enrolled in health insurance through my job and will be seeing my GYN in April, but I haven't been to any kind of doctor in about 5 years.

Go see your GYN - it sounds like your thyroid is messing up - that could explain your periods and your thinning hair. Also if you are anemic - that could cause that too. You need to have blood work done to see what exactly is wrong. If you have either of the problems I mentioned, they are an easy fix, but you really need to pin point exactly what the problem is.

There are a number of reasons why this could be happening and most of them are not the things you are probably thinking or probably worried about. It is time to go to the doctor and get an examination to determine what's going on.

Well if you're a vegetarian, you could have a lack of protien, which would explain both.
