Ok so I didn't have periods for about 5 years while I was on the Depo shot. I switched birth control a few months back and it kicked my periods back in gear :( I was on the Nuvaring, hated it. Switched to the pill, hated it. Then figured out that hormonal birth control messes with my meds so I shouldn't use that kind of birth control. SO I've been off of BC for a couple months with regular periods. But since september I've had 3 periods! I had 2 in september that were 2 weeks apart, and now (one week after my last period ended) I started another period yesterday!! What the heck? I hate having that time of the month and now I have it way too often, this has never happened and I can't find much info online about what could be causing this. I have an appt with my doc soon but I'm hoping for a few ideas before I go in there. BTW these are real periods, not just spotting. Each one has lasted 4-6 days and been a constant flow that is just as heavy, if not heavier, than my previous periods. This sucks, any ideas? I'm running out of pads and tampons lol!
