My name is Amanda and I'll be 32 in August. I'm overweight but have been my whole life. I started my period at 12 and it has NEVER been regular. About 9 years ago, I would get the "end days" period. Gross as it may sound, we all know what that is, the dark, light blood. I never used tampons except when swimming but that was few and far between. Since then, I have had MAYBE a total of 10 periods. Once I went an entire TWO and 1/2 years without one. But when I get them, they are FIERCE! I can't even get out of the tub because the blood just runs out of me. It's terribly embarrassing and gross! And the cramps! I am usually in the tub for at least two hours crying and bleeding before I can control it enough to use a tampon AND a pad! Those terrible periods have lasted up to 15 days at a time! I am not now, nor have I ever been, sexually active. Yes, ladies! A virgin. My "area" is very private and I hate talking about it. Last time I told a doctor about my problem she prescribed BC pills and I gained 70 lbs! So, I really don't want to tell my new doctor! Thanks for reading this far.

I am noticing a trend here with the depo shot. I too was on the depo shot from 16-18 and since then I have not had a normal period unless i was on birth control which induces a false period so does not actually count. I really don't feel this shot should be given without much more information about the side effects, had I known I would have to go through hormone tests, ultra sounds, and various gyno exams because of no more period I may have thought twice about it. I am now 24 and period has never gone back to normal since haven't had it more than once a year in over 3 years. I am thinking about looking into action against depo shot, as I am now a medical student and know that what is going on is an ongoing trend among people who have had the depo shot. When I am ready to have children after medical school it will most likely cost me well over 50,000 for hormone therapy and treatments, on top of all of my student loans. My university has an excellent law program and I am seeking advice from some of the professors about this issue.

hmmm... There are several factors that one should consider. Weight, stress, hormonal imbalance, or all three can affect menstrual cycles. I too suffer from this. I haven't had my period in about a little under
a year and I am 22 years old, never have been pregnant, a little
underweight, type A personality, live a very physically active
lifestyle and UC student.The best advice I can give is to find specialized professionals. You may also want to consider seeing several doctors.

You DEFINITLEY need to go get checked for PCOS...Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome... When I read about the "your neck looks dirty" that is one of the signs of PCOS.. My sister has PCOS and that is one of the things her amazing doctor told her. My sister always had a bloating feeling too. I wouldn't waste any more time.. go tell your Doc!!!

Well, I haven't had my period since I gave birth to my first child - TEN years ago. I'm a bit chubby. Normal life stress. I did get a few hairs on my chin that keep coming back no matter how much I pluck. I do get bloating from time to time (twice or so times a year). No one knows what's wrong with me. I exercise regularly. Can't lose weight. Any ideas? Since I feel fine most of the time I'm not too worried about getting my period again. At least i was able to have one baby (even though a few years back i wished I could have had more) But I would like to lose the weight that I gain ten years ago. It's just stuck on me.

i am 20 years old... i had the depo shot too... i was having hot flashes a lot and i decided i wanted my periods back... i didnt mind that i didnt have them... but i felt like i was perimenopausal... i hated it. :( i went to the doctor and they said that i should wait until the end of summer and if they didnt come back then they would do some tests... i havent had a period in 13 months... and like someone said... i have seen before about the infertile thing... if this depo shot caused this then i would so sue. because it did not say anything about being infertile... i am 20 years old and would like to have kids some day... i have 1 1/2 months to find out what is going on... i did have a cbc and that came back normal if that has anything to do with it... yes i am a little overweight but i carry it well, since i am 5 feet 10 1/2 inches... i do not exercise as much as i should... maybe 2 times a week at most...

my case is very similar. I'm 28 now and had my son 5 years ago. Throughout my life I was very in shape. 5'4 125 lbs. sometimes would skip a month every now and then but nothing too crazy. I also took the depo starting when I was 17 for about 3 or 4 years. Then I quit it because it was starting to make me gain weight. After I had my son my weight sky rocketed over 100 lbs heavier and I got facial hair. Also had cysts the doctors were worried about then disappeared. I have been told to check for poly cystic ovarian syndrome. I actually finally have a drs app on nov 12th and am looking forward to hopefully having some answers and a period. I hope knowing other people are going through the same thing helps. I know after reading some posts I feel better!
