I am 31 years old and have in the past three months all of a sudden been very irregular with my periods. Since I can remember I have had a period every 28 days without fail and in January I moved from Colorado to South Carolina and had my period a few days late but then in Feb I had my period 25 days later which was early and then in March it was 37 days later but at day 34 I had tiny brown discharge whic is normally mean period next day but instead I had that for 3 days. Now I am on 34th day and have been putting a tampoon in since 4 days ago in waiting at at the end of the day there will be a speck of blood like my period is stuck. I am so confused and concerned about this. My husband is in the military and I have been having problems with other stuff for over two years and can't get any of the medical professionals to help me figure out what is happening and now I am having more things go wrong withme with the latest period change. In November of 2003 my son was 11 months old and I stopped breast feeding in the next 30 days I gained 25 pounds I didn't change my diet or exercise so I just figured it was the no breast feeding but since that didn't happen with my daughter I was worried. My stomach seemed to be filled with air and the following month I gained another 15 pounds! I managed to go on a very strict calorie intake and stop the weight gain but just know that something is wrong. My left side of my lower abs and hurts when I lay on it and I feel like there is something there but when I have gone to the doctors they haven't been able to feel anything so it goes untreated. I also get full very easily the truth is I always feel full even if I haven't eaten in a day which I need to do sometimes because of that constant feeling of fullness. I also have bad gas and can be constipated at times. All of those things have been going on for over 2 years and My stomach seems bloated and swollen to me but I do not know since I have put so much weight on it could just be that I am fat? I do not know if my period change has anything to do with my other symptoms but I am concerned about both and thought maybe if I can go to the doctors with some possible ideas or tests to ask for then I can finally get some help. Thank you for your time and help.
