Hi Alycat -

I have a similar problem with missing periods and then I get them and they are awful (severe pain, bleeding in excess and clots). Basically, I went from being every 28 days like clock work to being 46 days, 40 days, 52 days, 47 days this period. Which is crazy because last year, I had my period with regular bleeding for over 80 days and spotted out until I reached 102 days.

So far, my doctors can't find any reason. I am going to have them check for endometrial problems and fibroids. I have been getting ultrasounds every 90 days, both abdominally and a transvaginal, which may be your next step? Although, my doctor said not getting your period isn't necessarily a sign of something bad happening.

I am sorry I can't be of help, but do know you are not alone. I hope you get regulated. Let me kn ow how things work out for you!

PJ

hi, alykat. sorry to hear you're having several gynecologic problems. having hpv or having cervical dysplasia shouldn't impact your period. and, yes, stress can definitely be a factor. i hope that gets resolved soon! i would encourage you to get a copy of your medical records to better understand the results of your tests, including the paps, hpv tests, biopsies, etc. If you have mild dysplasia (CIN1), diagnosed via colposcopic biopsy, then the doctor may just keep you on a watch and wait mode to be sure it doesn't get any worse. most women can clear this on their own, without medical treatment. it may help to stop smoking (if you smoke), eat good for you veggies (including cruciferous vegetables), get plenty of sleep, reduce stress, and reduce vaginal inflamation/irritation (avoiding irritants including tampons). what's your next step with the doctor? let us know how you're doing!

Thanks for the replies. I have another colposcopy on the 29th because he said some cells have got worse. So I will find out later on for those results. I still haven't got my period either.

Well I'm a non-smoker, non-drinker, eat plenty of veggies too, stress comes and goes.

I may just go get other tests done to make sure nothing else is wrong with me for not having my period. But not sure if there is anything that can stop your period. I will look into it more.

just a thought....if you're exercising a lot (a lot!), and have very (very!) low bodyfat, you may stop menstruating.

Ok, I had my colposcopy/biopsy done today. My doctor explains to me before the procedure that my last pap results say that I have mild dysplasia with a low grade lesion and now I have a high grade lesion that appeared.

So now I wait for the results, my mom is freaking out but I'm calm about it. Also I still haven't got my period and he gave me progesterone to make me have it.

Guess now I just wait.

Alykat...

I went thru similar experiences in my early to mid twenties...Didn't have periods at times for 3-6 months at a time...I was trying to get pregnant at the time too which made it even harder when you don't have periods...

Well this is what i found out.....I had Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome...and if your ovaries are not producing a mature egg each month and realeasing an egg each month you will not have a period... I ended up on Clomid a fertility drug to help stimulate my ovaries...after three months of treatment i got pregnant.... had to do this for both pregnancies.

Symptoms of PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) is due to to high levels of testatrone in your system which cause excess hair growth on your upper lips or face, extra body fat around the middle, hair loss, no periods, ovarian cysts, etc.... I equate it to your ovaries must be having an gendered identity crisis....lol. You might want to ask your Doctor about this condition if you are experienceing any of these symptoms....

Meanwhile please make sure you get good advice and treatment for your high grade lesions...i'm going thru all the testing right now to determine what level my dysplasia is myself....so im almost at the same point you are. My initial pap smear showed ASC-H can not rule out High grade lesions and HPV High Risk positive...just waiting for my Biopsy report to come back in.....

Let us know how things are going for you..

Ok well i just got the results from my 2nd colposcopy today...Well as before I still have mild dysplasia on one side and now I have moderate dysplasia with a high grade lesion on the other side and have to have a LEEP done.

And right after I had the colposcopy I kept bleeding, I called him to ask am I supposed to be bleeding continuously and he assured me I'd be alright that its normal. I said well would the colposcopy trigger my monthly, he said no, but he was wrong because I got my monthly finally since July right after he did the colposcopy.

I told my new boyfriend of what is happening with me and he has been supporting me about the issue and wants to be there when I have my LEEP O.o

Well that's all that's been happening so far.
