My period was always regular when I was in school. However from September to now my periods are just completely haywire from all the stress at my job, don't get me wrong, I love my job but when you're the one in charge and the youngest no one listening to you about what needs to be done is very stressful. I wore 60 hour weeks and my periods have been short and sweet when they do finally come. I've been more stressed out then normal lately and my period actually started early this month but it feels like someone is stabbing me repeatedly within my ovaries and vagina. And my bleeding is VERY heavy! I started yesterday and I normally have he first two days very light, then a heavy day and two light days follow. Should I see a doctor about this sudden change?
