Hi, sorry for the through post but l'm just looking for anyone else who has experienced anything similar. I know digestive problems are common with periods but mine are incredible disruptive. The first month it happened, I thought I had a stomach bug and the second month I thought it came back. I've been to two doctors about this, had blood work, h pylori and am waiting on a SIBO testbut they seem to think it's either anxiety (which I do suffer from) or just my new norm - these symptoms only happened after i stopped breastfeeding, I never even had nausea before getting pregnant.

Only the blood quantity is very less. Should be worried. I have bareable leg cramps as well during the time and my period lasts for 4-5 days were I bleed at night only in first day and second day onwards I don't bleed during night. submitted by /u/Ok_Berry6019 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi, I stopped bc Yaz on the 18th February and the 7th and 8th March I got egg white mucus (like this in the picture) and then 15 days later I got my period for 5 days. The 8th April I got this mucus in the picture (ovulation discharge?) and today I have to get my period but I don't have any symptoms other than cramps that are here for almost 1 week. Is it possible that I ovulated but I won't get my period? The last time I had sex was in October. submitted by /u/SweetClock6070 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
