Irregular and Natural remedies (repost)
So a little background... Before I had my kids, I was very regular. My period began on the same couple days every month (between the 13-17 every single month from 14 years old). After I had my youngest, I got the depo shot for birth control. I took 2 doses of it then got off of it. I didn’t have a period the entire time until 6 months after my last dose. Then it was WILD. I had a period for a solid month, fluctuating between light almost spotting to the heaviest flow I’ve ever had in my whole life. Then I was off for a week and on for 2, off a week, on for 2. That lasted for a whole year. My cycle started to regulate some, or so I thought. I’ll go three weeks between periods, get my regular period, be off for a week then back on my period for another week, then off for 3. This has been the past year. So for two years my cycle has been WHACK.
It’s not causing any major problems except that it’s super annoying (and hello, tampons are expensive.) So I’ve been reading a lot about natural remedies and supplements and visiting my local health food store.
I ordered Red raspberry leaf tea, Vitex, black cohosh, and evening primrose oil. Y’all I am serious about getting my cycle back to normal. The only problem is that I don’t know how I should dose everything, how often should I take which supplement, how many times a day do I need to take the tea, etc. I’ve googled my little heart out and I don’t find anything that answers my question.
If any of y’all have any insight or have taken any of these yourselves and don’t mind sharing your experience, I would greatly appreciate it.
Baby dust to all 💕
