Why is my period still on?

Question

I've had an awkward period for about a year. On one month then off the next. This time I missed a month and a half. Now I have been on my period for a month and my doctor says that nothing is wrong. I fell tired alot along with headaches and dizziness. I may get alittle shakey at times. Someone help me please!

Answer 1

It's normal for this to happen in your first few years of getting your period. But it shouldn't continue to miss unless you are pregnant.

Tiredness, dizziness, queasiness and breast pain are some of the side effects that accompany intense periods and are due to loss of so much blood and the shedding of endometrium which lines your uterus.

Sometimes other factors affect the nature and cycle of menstruation such as your dietary intake. You must take in lots of iron rich foods such as meat, beans and green leafy vegies. Some women have the tendency of getting anaemic around the time of their periods.

Answer 2

This could mean that you have low or high blood pressure or the you are not getting enough fiber in your diet. I would try getting a doctors appointment for a physical that tests everything. Good Luck:]

Answer 3

You probably feel lousy because of all the blood loss. You should go see a gynacologist right away and get checked out Hope your better soon..

Answer 4

I would suggest talking to you doctor about getting on birth control pills if you aren't already as they can help regulate things .... Good luck.

Answer 5

See your gynocologist. Get referred!! What an ordeal!

Good Luck and God Speed :)
