Re: Period concerns

Hi there

I suppose it would be normal (for want of a better word) for your period to be a bit erratic if you are feeling a bit under the weather. See how it goes this month. If it continues and this is not usually the way your periods are, then maybe see a doctor.

I hope you are feeling better soon

Re: Period concerns

I had the same problem a while ago. It's totally normal as long as it doesn't become something that happens every month. Sometimes periods do weird things just because they feel like it. If it'll make you feel better, you can always call your doctor and ask him about it.

Re: Period concerns

If you're concerned about it, a doctor visit won't hurt :) Having irregular periods once in a while isn't a terrible thing. Some women even have really heavy periods like what you're describing as a normal thing (like me).

Good luck! I hope you feel better soon.
