8 weeks since my last period

[GB2990]

Evening,

I’m on week 8 without my period. I am not pregnant, had bloods done and done on about 100 tests. Anyone have this? My periods have always been irregular but never to this extent. I’ve got horrendous back and stomach pain and the docs keep fobbing me off as it being my ibs and it definitely isn’t as this is a different pain and I’m so bloated I look around 6 months pregnant 😔

Have you recently had covid vaccine? Similar thing happened to me after mine

I got my second dose back in June. I’ve always had irregular periods but this is the longest I’ve went without one. So that will have been 2 I’ve missed since my last period. So I’m not sure what’s going on

Any chance you have endometriosis? I have it and albeit would usually have regular cycles, I did have a strange blip where I thought I was pregnant (had been trying for years by that stage) but it ended up just an exceptionally long cycle and unfortunately it did mean endo tissue built and built, cramps worsened, bloating worsened and I felt so uncomfortable but eventually a period from hell came. It never happened again thankfully. The reason I ask about endo is because for years a male GP thought I had IBS (not suggesting you don't) but it was actually endo triggering IBS symptoms for me. Just thought it was worth mentioning. Xx

Myself and my GP have discussed endo as I have all the symptoms that point to it. I just can’t get them to take it any further. I’ve had irregular periods (never this late) since I first got them and have always suffered with heavy bleeding, clotting, bad cramps and I have had ovation cysts also. It’s like banging my head against a brick wall. I’m so bloated and sore it’s horrible 😔

Ah that's so sad to read you haven't been referred for an explorative laparoscopy. I am sure you've considered everything already yourself in terms of pursuing this so won't patronise you with advice on that front. Wishing you well and hope your period shows soon. X
