it sucks to have a TOM(time of month) when you haven't been able to conceive for 7 years

I've had irregular periods all my life... sometimes they come on time every month for exaclty 5 days, three or four times in a row - other times I've got two or three months without a period and when it does come sometimes I've had it as long as 12 days!
I used to worry, sometimes I thought I was pregnant! Lol but the doc checked me out and nothing was wrong.
Irregular periods are usually caused by stress, over/under-eating and a sudden increase in physical activity - but sometimes its just ur natural make up. Not everyone has periods exactly once every month - thats just an average.
If you are sure its a period (its not just bleeding, but ur actually getting the cramps and the mood swings and what not) then I wouldnt be too worried about it. If its just bleeding tho, especially if its a lighter red then usual then you might want to check with the doc to make sure everything is alright.
Its probably nothing tho - I've always had issues with irregular periods from my crazy lifestyle and I still managed to get pregnant! I'm 36 weeks now and I've had zero complications :) This lets me know that whether or not your periods are irregular your reproductive system is still good!!
Oh - and I feel bad for u lol... one period a month is bad enough - two!! I'd send you chocolate if I could lmao

The female body is an amazing thing! An amazingly annoying thing!!! It's fine, most likely just your hormones just having a laugh at your expense.
But if it keeps happening, hurts like heck or lasts too long, it's then best see a doctor.

TOM [time of the month; code name] is just cahhhrazzy like that. if TOM just gotcha, then he's going to barge in whenever he feels like. sadly, TOM, with the help of your hormones, can keep annoying you for a year or two. just be sure to carry his tramps [tampons] and/or pillows [pads] in your bag for whenever he decides to waltz on in.

Because our hormones are crazy... CRAZY i tell you! Unless you have birth control to regulate you periods, it isn't guaranteed to be normal every month.
