Hello, I am 30 years old and have been having these problems for a couple years but they are starting to get much worse lately. My periods start out to be just a normal, although heavy period every month, it usually goes for about a week to a week and a half then it appears to be tapering off to light discharge and sometimes even nothing for maybe a day, then it will start back up again heavy as ever and go for another week or two. It seems like there is hardly any time during the month when I am not on my period. I cramp and have a sort of pressure as well. I have been put on progesterine pills and even some birth control but nothing seems to help. Im really worried that something could be terribly wrong, what should I be checking for? My dr seems to be clueless and isnt running any tests at all!
