Accepted Answer

Yes to both.: Irregular menstrual vaginal bleeding should be easily distinguishable from an early pregnancy with threatened abortion by a home urine pregnancy test. Irregular menses decrease fertility but you can still get pregnant if unprotected vaginal intercourse takes place. Please take Folic Acid 1 mg daily and consult with your gynecologist. Best of luck!

Question 7

i got implanting 9 months ago and it seems like i have a period every two weeks that is dark and very clumpy. i also get occasional pain where it's at?

Accepted Answer

Nexplanon: I am assuming that by implanting you mean that you had a cotraceptive implant like Nexplanon inserted into your arm. One of the frequent side-effects of the implants is irregularly irregular bleeding that occurs and often continues for the entire time the implant is in place. Scar tissue forms around the implant and can cause occasional pain in some cases. Hope this helps.

Question 8

i m 43 and started having period every two weeks what does it mean ?

Accepted Answer

Perimenopausal?: Prob simple imbalance of hormones.  A state of more estrogen than Progesterone from failure to ovulate ( release eggs).  Can happen with stress, or peri- menopausal, or no particular reason.  Because you're over 40 it is recommended you be eval. Esp. For any pre-cancer conditions. (rare).

Question 9

what could be the reason that i have had my period every two weeks or less since january?

Accepted Answer

Menstrual cycles: It is common for teenagers to skip a period and have irregular cycles.  It is also more likely to happen if you are very athletic, gain or lose weight, using birth control pills, or have an eating disorder.  Still, if you are sexually active, you could be pregnant.  I would track your cycles to see if it happens often and see your doctor if you notice that it becomes more irregular.

Question 10

i get my period every two weeks, what is wrong with me?

Accepted Answer

Something: Menstrual cycles generally occur every 21-45 days apart, and anything more frequent than this indicates a medical problem that needs to be treated. There are many potential causes and only a thorough exam and evaluation will make the diagnosis. See your physician.
