Constant PMS!

[lil'tangerine]

For the past two months my cycle has been insane! I normally do not have any kind of period ( has been that way for years) unless I stop taking my BC. I've seen a gynocologist (sp?) and he told me I should count myself lucky...

Now for the past 2 months I have had my period every second week! It's driving me insane...the only thing I can think of is stress is causing this.

I have been putting off an appointment with the doc 'cuz there's a shortage of them in this city and it takes forever...not to mention my doc has given up his family practice to a new doctor that has not yet started seeing patients.

Do you think stress could cause this to happen? My emotions are running WILD and it's making my newly long distance relationship that much harder to deal with.

For sure stress can mess with your period. When my father passed away I was getting mine for two weeks at a time. I went on the BC then and it has kept me pretty regular.

The last gyno visit i had which was 2 weeks ago i told the dr that i had been under alot of stress, and she told me that usually when ur under stress ur periods stop...but i dont buy it, I think stress can either make you stop ur period or make u bleed MORE..

If you're having trouble getting a GYN appt at your normal clinic consider planned parenthood (my normal clinic had a 3-4 month wait vs 2 days wait at planned parenthood). Most insurance companies cover appt there too.

I think stress can certainly be a factor. I hope you get into the dr soon and they're able to help you!
