Hi there. WOndering if anyone can help.
My periods have changed.... I get it for about 4 days extremly light, it stops for a day then i get a normal period that lkast the normal 5 - 7 days.....
Of a night, and only of a night, i have been feeling like im coming down with the flu as i get the sore muscles.
Im also at times tired, but then feel fantastic at times....
Could this be a sign of low iron as i know that i have that problem
Thanks
It could be iron but it could be hormones as well depending on your age and your nutrition. Has your doctor recommended any diet changes in order to increase iron intake or prescribed any iron supplements?

I am 26 now and for the last 6 months I have been experiencing very strange changed regarding my periods and symptoms associated with them. My periods have always been regular and I had few symptoms. For the last 6 months my pattern has changed, now it seems as if I have two patterns that interact. I would have a 24-day cycle one month and then 28 day-cycle the second month and it’s been going on in circles. My symptoms became worse with extreme tiredness, moodiness, emotional distress and abdominal pains.

I talked to my doc and nothing wrong was found and she said that it could be that my body’s ready for pregnancy and is letting me know that and she feels that these symptoms would pass when I give birth. I am not saying it is a relief, it is more of a burden ‘cos I am not ready for a child yet but I just wanted to let you know that the similar could be happening to you too.
