Strange question - period related!

LegacyUser

I'm sorry if this is a bit OTT, but I literally don't know what to Google at this stage! Just to note, I'm not looking for medical advice at all.

Three things:

1. I've pretty much always had really irregular periods - even more so since I've been on contraceptives - almost ten years now.

2. I have to take a specific pill 'cause of blood clots in the family, so it's not one that you can control your period with.

3. I've been in a casual long distance relationship for over a year now. It's brilliant - we meet up when we can and do lots of fun things and have great sex. We might meet up twice in a month, or else there could be two months in between.

The thing is - every single time bar one I have got my period when we met. Fair enough - that could be coincidence. But, no matter the time when we meet, the same thing happens - period appears within the first day or two. It can be very light, but it's hanging over me. Then, afterwards, I invariably go for up to two months without. One of the times we met, I had been on my period fairly heavily a week beforehand so was sure I was fine. Just as I was thinking at least I didn't have to worry about it, it arrived - completely not due.

The last time, literally ten minutes before he arrived, it arrived too (again undue). Was on and off the whole time until the day he left when it stopped. It's now been six weeks and not a peep - but the one week we had together it had to hang around the whole time!

I'm wondering if at this stage it's something that I'm stressing about and this is causing my body to react. Either that or I am just really unlucky!

I'm just wondering if anyone has heard anything similar. I can't find any similar stories online. I'm also wondering if it's some kind of messed up hormonal thing. We are fairly mad about each other by now even though it's casual, and maybe my body is somehow reacting to excitement when I'm looking forward to us meeting? I dunno - I'm clutching at straws here! We've organised the next few times that we're going to meet, and I really could do without it happening again.

I know OP you said you're not looking for medical advice, but it sounds like medical advice is exactly what you need, and not from Dr. Google either, but from a medical professional, such as your GP, who will know your medical history and be able to interpret your symptoms far better than you, or anyone on the internet can. They would be the only person who would be qualified to be able to advise you on what honestly sounds like a medical issue.

Yes, you really need to go to a GP and get professional advice on this matter.

OP, I think you really do need medical advice in this case and it's your GP that needs to help, not PI, particularly as they will know about your other medication

All the best
