PERIOD: thoughts, feels, concerns
hey everyone! new to posting here so hoping for some positive insight as for what’s best for me to do 🩵
background: my period/cycle has ALWAYS been up shit creek, without a paddle, tide running, hole in the boat… never on time (early or late), severe ovulation cramps every few months, and i have these all the way through til when i actually menstruate. my partner and i are sexually active, not often at all tho, i’m on any contraception, we do use condoms
current: on day 11 of late period, have waves of cramps every now and then, i have taken 2 tests, both negative.
i’m stressing myself sick over this because i need to know what the hell is wrong with me. i worry about talking to my mum about it (still living at home, partner lives with us) because her mum (my nan) not long passed away and she has a lot on her plate to deal with RE that.
plus we don’t really have conversations about any of that sort of stuff, sometimes we do. but it isn’t often.
i’m going to book the doctor but unsure how to mention it & also which doctor to go to: my usual GP who sees my mum or someone else.
we live in a very small town so everyone ends up knowing everyone’s business.
EDIT: just adding that my mum has a long list of issues similar when she was younger, even more now so after having myself. i wish strongly not to have children and it’s been discussed with my partner and made very known!
thank you in advance xx
