So another one of my "has anyone else had this questions!"
I have posted before about my lack of periods, I went 11 months, then 10 months and since December I'm going every 3 months!
Anyway, I think they are anovulatory cycles as I notice I have the ususal egg white discharge which happens for a week or two and then it will stop and litterally a few days later I'll have a bleed which is why I think I'm not ovulating. Also the bleeds are much lighter than when I used to have periods and althought they still last several days I can get away with just pads.
So this month I had the egg white discharge for a couple of days then it stopped and on Monday I felt dreadful, tired, no energy woozy etc. On Tuesday I awoke to find I had a fair amount of brown discharge come away. I didn't think too much of it as I was kind of expecting a bleed, had the usual sore boobs, cramps, feeling crap before a period feeling but then it stopped after 24 hours. Again didn't think too much of it as this has been a pattern the last few period where I'll have a stop start period but I've had nothing since and my disharge is back to normal white.
I've litterally had everything like I'm having a normal period. Still been getting the cramps even when I wasn't bleeding, the awful bloated belly that I get with periods which then went down overnight and today I've woken up with the most god awful headache which I quite often used to get at the end of a period. I think they are hormonal as painkillers don't help much and they usually last a couple of days.
So everything ties in with having a period but just had a one day bleed! It did change to a bit pinky for a while but by the Wednesday it was done.
Has anyone else had a 24 hour period before?
I've read quite a lot and my periods seem to tie in with the later stages of peri, irregular, much lighter and going months and months with nothing and now they seem to have setttled back to three month cycles. I'm really hoping that I'm nearly done but still only 49 so aware I could have this for a while yet!
