Hi I am worried as I have had no periods for over a year and today started bleeding . I have had sore boobs a few tummy cramps but a week or so before I had a clear show I have rung my Doctor and has just phoned me back with a appointment at 15.30 today . I am really worried . Anyone else had this happen . I am not on HRT or any medication .

Hi Jeanette

​Your symptom's could well be your hormone levels changing, hopefully you only need HRT and all this will sort its self ill bethinking of you later 

best wishes

Thankyou I hope so . Don't really want to use HRT as heard loads of bad things about it . Heard of wild yam supposed to help .

Please keep us posted. The same happened to me; I have an ultrasound next Tuesday to check it. I didn't have a period in 18 months and lately I had this PMS symptoms and started to bleed.

My doctor is sending me to see a Gynocologist at the Hospital , so just waiting for the appointment. Should hear within 10 days when I go to see Gynocologist . My Doctor told me not to worry ,but didn't put my mind at ease . So just a waiting game. If she was worried i would have a appointment straight away . So trying not to get stressed and worry.

Please let me know how you get on . You will be ok so don't worry x

It's normal, because your monthly doesn't just stop, it's a gradual declination of your hormones. Many women think they haven't had anything for some time but even slight spotting that's rarely noticeable is an indication that you're hormones are still active. Also, eating soy, tofu, or any type of soy byproduct, will disrupt your hormones and can cause your hormones to become active again.

I wanted to give you an update on my ultrasound. I have multiple small fibroids inside the uterus. My doc told me if I bleed again to go and see a Gyno. From what I read these are not treated if you don't have side effects. Im feeling bloated though. Good Luck to you and keep us posted!

Hi im pleased youve now a diagnosis, ive heard these can cause lots of issues, and can grow to quite a size, if it were me id want them treated before this could happen, a small op is far better than open surgery. What bad stuff have u heard, ive only heard of positive experience from family .

​hope everything goes well for you
