Are you normally regular or have you had a history of being irregular? Do you have any other symptoms such as excess facial hair or loss of head hair? These in conjunction with what you are describing could signal a problem like PCOS. However, it may not. Either way, the best thing would be to see a gynecologist and have them do some tests or visit with a doctor about your symptoms. It could signal other things as well, such as thyroid.

If you're going to have a heavy flow, you could be retaining water and bloating. I would go buy a pregnancy test kit. You probably aren't, but they're not that expensive, and then you can stop worrying. Sometimes stress and/or physical training can lead to a missed period to.

20 lbs in a month is crazy. Are you SURE? If this is true then no wonder you didn't get a visit from Aunt Flo... your body chemistry would be messed up. See a doc ASAP.

most women who are pregnant don't gain a tremendous amount of weight till the end of pregnacy. my sister (25) gained 3 pounds till about her 4th month of pregnacy. so if that is what your suggesting, it may not be the reason.
good luck!

what are you eating? Salt? Other body changes? Do you keep a monthly chart?
