My periods are all over the place 28 then 29 days then the next month 30. My periods last 4-5 days

I don't know what's wrong with me
This is my first post so please forgive me if this makes no sense. I'm trying to find answers for what is exactly wrong with my body. As far as I can remember I've been told in anemic, and I've always had heavy and painful periods since my very first period. As I grew up I was told one day my hormones

Amenorrhea and metformin
Hello, I've recently been diagnosed with PCOS after years of
absent
or few
periods
and currently I haven't had a period for over 1 year. As background, I'm 31, my BMI is around 20, I am athletic, and have done some type of sport or workout everyday since my teenage years.

Any experience with Cerazette for heavy bleeding...?
Hi Everyone, Just wondering if anyone has any experience with Cerazette - specifically for the treatment of heavy bleeding - and would be happy to share their experience of how long it took to settle in once they started taking it and any symptoms they had in the first few weeks/months? Bit of background

Heavy Periods
Went to GP today (on a Sunday 👍🏼) and asked for tranexamic tablets again to help with heavy periods. He said I could have them but not for long term use and suggested marina coil (no chance) or mini pill. I told him I had recently started taking liothyronine and hoping this will help my periods. Unlikely

Pain relief
Hi all, I get terrible period pain and can’t cope without painkillers. I literally have to take them every few hours for the first 2 days of my period. I wanted to know what painkillers you all take. I currently take ibuprofen for period pain. I need something stronger. I

Premature menopause
Her
periods
have been irregular and
absent
at times, and she has just been told she is probably now post menopausal! She’s 39. I wondered if there are opinions out there about this scenario?

Medication
It's been a while since I last posted! Since then, I've come off the pill, been diagnosed with IBS and am taking Buscopan when and if needed, and honestly my pain has improved so much! The only one negative is that my periods are very very heavy, and I'm trying everything to stop them being so unbearable

Progesterone only pill and heavy periods
Hi, I’m 43 and started taking progesterone only pill cezarette 3 months ago for very heavy periods. The bleeding has become lighter but I am now having a period every 16/17 days instead of 26. Should I give it more time to get into my system? Has anybody else experienced more frequent periods? Many

Mefenamic acid & tranexamic acid have made a HUGE difference to my periods 😁
Hi ladies, I have endometriosis left all over my rectum and currently TTC and awaiting another laparoscopy ( with an endo specialist) My periods are pretty horrendous ; so heavy and ridiculously painful. Obviously with TTC I’m restricted what I can take. This is the first time using both medicines

Hip and pelvic pain
Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone had experienced pelvic and hip pain on around day 20 of their cycle? Today I’ve had a sharp stabbing pain in what feels like my left ovary and now it is a very sharp ache in the whole left side of my pelvis and hip and now it’s radiating down my left leg.

Period or not?
I suffer from very irregular periods (between 5-8 weeks between them) and also bleeding between periods (usually a brownish colour - not fresh blood). I took Provera to induce a period and then clomid for the first time last month. It has now been four weeks since my last period and I have had bleeding
