Not normal. : Obviously that is not normal since most women are not doing that each month. There are multiple options. Hormonal treatments such as birth control pills, Progesterone treatments and the Mirena (levonorgestrel) iud are effective reversible treatments that will help many people. There is also a drug called Lysteda that contains no hormones. Get evaluated for possible endometriosis.
