Okay....I'm scared.

actually, I missed my appt. last week because of alarm problems. I am scheduled to go in tomorrow afternoon at 3:00. I think it has gone down a bit, but I could be wrong. I still think I need to go get it checked out. That, and also the fact that I haven't had my period in 3 months (no, I'm not pregnant..lol). Thanks for asking Spatts.

Okay...I went to the doc today and got good news. The lump that I found was only a cyst and she said it would go away in no time!

I asked her about my period and, of course, they did a pregnancy test on me...which was negative! So...because I haven't had my period for that long, she gave me a progestin pill to take for 5 days so that it would make me have my period. She said it would probably be the worst one I've ever had. Ugh...I can't wait for that! LOL.

Anyway, I told her that I didn't mind having my period, but she said that because I didn't have it...it really increased my chances of getting ovarian cancer...so...I said gimme the pills! lol.

Thanks for all your encouragement, ladies...I was a bit worried today...but now feel MUCH better!

Congrats!

I'm glad to hear that you're ok! Not knowing can really drive ya nuts.

When I was younger (from the time I was about 16 until I was 24, I never had regular periods. I'd go anywhere from 3 to 6 months at times without getting it, then get it for a few months, very painful periods...usually having about 35 days inbetween cycles. My hormones were wacked or something...it was like an early menopause for me with bad hotflashes/sweats and mood swings. I was put on bc pills a few times to help regulate me but ever time we tried, it just made things worse. I was also given those hormone pills to make me get my period a couple of times...that sucked...I feel for ya!

Then when I turned 25 I got it for 6 months in a row...then one month I missed it...I was pregnant! What a shock it was to me, but a very welcome surprise. After I had my daughter I nursed her and got my period back after 3 months. Since then I've been regular. My cycles started back at about 35 days inbetween and stayed that way for years, but in the last 2 yrs. they've gotten closer and now I'm at about 26 days. Weird! I'm 36 now.

When I wasn't regular and when my cycles were farther apart, I had some breast lumps that would come and go and I'd get a lot of pain and tenderness in my breasts, especially the week before I'd get my period. The doctor was never very concerned but had me do a mamogram just to be sure. I just had one done about 2 months ago and I passed with flying colors. The lumps and pain have almost gone away in the last year.

Good luck!
