  • Since I've been ballet dancer my entire life before I went pro and I was about 15 I didn't have period for a year then finally decided to get medicine to get it started I knew although they suck my body needed to get rid of the junk. So I don't remember the exact medication but I had to take it for exactly 10 days then no more. And I got my period before that. I was too very crampy, achy, wasn't fun I wish now that I wouldn't taken it though bc it really messed my hormones up never been the same. I really believe that's what did it bc many of the things started not long after. But did it's job guess. Hope u have better experience then I though.
  • I've never heard of that. I was put on birth control to regulate mine.
  • I thought @monkey_girl he would of used pill but this is stronger app :s but I had a mc then have had a period every 2 weeks since xx and oh no @jules bless you :( I feel so rough and only been a week x
  • Hopefully you feel better soon! For how long do you have to take it for?
  • Ya it's not fun I'm sorry. I hope things get back to normal for you soon if not I would call the doc office just see if this is totally normal? I mean yes u want to be regular but every two weeks is a lot and u have a lot of pain. After not having period for a year mine just went back to normal never every two weeks. How long are you supposed to take the medicine for? And I was never put on birth control to regulate it I've actually never been on birth control never had to be and now that I'm married once we know we're done for sure my hubby is getting fixed. I really am terrified of birth control not many have had great experience from what I read and hear from friends. Oh and im sorry about your miscarriage I can't even imagine how painful that would be. I'm very sorry for your loss.
  • Ty @jules and @monkey_girl I have to take 3 a day for 3 weeks come off for a week and hopefully will have period then and then repeat leave then after that If there not regular go back in x
  • That's long time. Have u done some research on the medicine itself see what the side effects are.
  • Yer @jules most of them are normal apart from headaches I need to ring tuesday when doctors are open again due to bank holiday and say about them and also the discharge which again tmi seems to be getting abit worse and I've not had it since was pregnant with my 2nd :( x
  • Oh I forgot about the long weekend I hope that can help u on Tuesday!
