period started on the 04/17/2014 it lasted for five days then its stopped for two days then started again 04/24/2014 for another 3days is this normal?

Question

My normal period last five to seven days. I have been bleeding for two weeks and its been heavier than normal and am still bleeding. Possibilities?

Answer 1

No, not normal: There are a variety of possibilities for irregular bleeding which is hard to address w/o more details; some common reasons are varying hormone levels, seen in times of stress, fluctuating weight, or irregularly taken birth control pills. There are other reasons as well; if you are irregular for another month, seek a medical exam.

Answer 2

Depends: It really depends on how uncomfortable you will feel. Do you have access to a pool or lake?

Answer 3

Personal decision: That is more a personal decision and may depend on your financial situation. If you can get a reliable unit for a good cost, go for it.

Answer 4

Repeat: If you are past the window you will need to repeat the test.

Answer 5

Start again: Most sites will say you cannot complete test if you are too late, - typically return between 48-72 hours. Most likely you will need to start another test.

Answer 6

Interesting question: Is the question asking what to do about discomfort caused by wearing certain clothing? (clothing itself is not alive and has no feelings.) a person could have some sensory nerve problems in the skin that signal pain when that part of the skin is touched by clothing (a dermatologist or neurologist can look into the matter). One can try wearing different fabrics to see if softer fabrics help.

Answer 7

Symptoms: This malformation is due to pressure in the brain pushing down on the back portion, the cerebellum. Headaches, nausea, dizziness, muscle weakness, and ringing in the ears (tinnitis). Other neurological symptoms, such as restless leg syndrome, sleep apnea, problems with swallowing. An MRI of the head and specialist care by a neurologist will help to diagnose and treat this problem.

Answer 8

Depends on activity: If you are straining and lifting heavy amounts, you could have more headaches and numbness/tingling. Some people can have dizziness and passing out with exertion. Days in which there is no exertion may be associated with less headache and other symptoms. Some patients have constant symptoms because the cerebellar position does not change for them with position or activity.

Answer 9

Anxiety and fatigue: Yes! anxiety causes us to expend physical and mental energy. People with severe anxiety often report physical fatigue.

Answer 10

Yes: Absolutely. In fact becoming easily fatiged is one of the possible criteria for diagnosing generalized anxiety disorder.
