Periods
Hi all,
What a lovely thing to talk about but I am just wondering if everyone is getting them again now?
I am in my 4th month of being on the pill & have my period at the minute. Now it isn't particularly heavy but I am in serious pain with it in m back, legs & tummy & (i have a chest infection) when I coughed yesterday something moved in the pit of my stomach! It wasn't pleasant.
I am on yasmin & I don't know whether I would be better changing my pill or perhaps i'm just having a bad month?
I am not having sex (may as well be honest) so the contraception thing isn't a big deal at the minute but as the always ads say I just want a happy period!
Any suggestions & how are your periods?

PS Sorry for such a weird post!

mine are sent from hell!!!! I was sterilised after Amelia and with having 5 kids and heading to 40 my periods are just awful. I think I am going to bleed to death on the first day. I cant go out as it leaks through tampons, pads and anything else I try.
However, your a young woman and only had the one so your periods should not be too bad. If they are worse than before you had Ellie then I would go and see you GP. Periods and pains tend to be better after you have had a baby.
Dont suffer and think its normal as its not really....
Chris....lucky you. Even though I still exclusively BF her I have had 3 periods. yuck!!! wish they had whipped it out when they sterilised me .....
TBH they haven't been as painful as before she was born but the last few days I have felt as though i'm dying!! Thankfully it is easing now & i'm going to give it another month or so on this pill to see how I go...variety is the spice of life & all that well i'll try a new pill lol
I can't help much either as I still haven't had a period because I'm bf. Mine were never too bad tho.
Hope you feel better soon!
P.S. Glad I'm not the only one with a not so hot sex life at the mo!
Good luck and hope you are feeling better soon x x
thankfully the period from hell has left me, i've decided to give it another 2 months on this pill & see how I go I just hate the fact that I feel as though i've put on weight but we can't have everything!!
