What can this be?

    Dunno if anyone can advise anything about my symptoms. I am certainly going to get medical advice on this – probably a blood test, but cannot go for at least another week.

    Basically I think that my hormones are gone haywire. Am 29.

    2 weeks, if not longer before (seems to be around ovulation) my period, I get abdominal cramps, nausea, sweating, delapidating headaches, dizziness, sore spots on my face/back (I have 2 really big sore ones on my nose at the moment), bloating, water retention.

    I eat well and I exercise 3 times a week. I do not take any supplements. I mainly started the exercising to see if that would help with the symptoms, but it didn’t help.

    I went on the pill before (I tried a few different types for a few months, along with the lowest dosage of the combination pill) and the headaches were excruciating. I also got something called an eroded cervix, which meant more pain and being intimate was quite painful too.

    So, I seem to have developed hair in certain places too where generally a female shouldn’t. This is embarassing enough to tell anyone but I manage this and get rid of it, but I think it might signify something else going on.
    I have gone to a doctor before and she didn’t do any tests but she suggested I go back on the pill. That was the only solution she had, but I declined seeing as the last time I tried the pill I felt so sick.

    Would there be anything else I could suggest to the doctor? Am kinda half scared of going cause if all they can suggest is the pill, then I’ll be in pain for the rest of my life (or well, until menopause).

    You need to talk to your doctor.
