Period again after 2 weeks

[WizzleWoo]

I normally have a regular 28 day cycle. However, my period has now returned after just 2 weeks, and it is extremely heavy still on day five. I did have a novasure ablation a few years ago which are supposed to stop periods but it didn't work for me. Getting horrendous headaches this week as well.
Do i need to see the dr or shall i just wait and see if this happens again.
Thanks for any help

How old are you?

Iwould go, sounds bad. hope you are better by now.

How are you today?

If it is still bad I would consider phoning gp tomorrow.

Thanks for the messages. Has just about slowed down now and the headache is easing. I am 40, so shouldn't be the menopause just yet.
Now I have to decide whether to see the dr or wait and see when it returns again.

Any such changes should be reported to the GP. I would also ask at that time for a referral to a gynae - something is causing all this to arise and some GPs are pretty much useless when it comes to gynae issues.

I don't think 40 is too young to start experiencing peri-menopausal changes (including erratic periods).

There's every chance that this is nothing sinister...lots of things can affect the menstrual cycle.

For your own piece of mind I would arrange a doctors appointment tomorrow. It's worth having a proper check and your doctor will also be able to prescribe something to ease the blood flow (if this does happen again).

I'm a tiny bit older than you and went to the Dr who ran tests to see if I was menopausal, which I wasn't. I was then put on the mini pill to regulate my periods and was told that lots of women don't get a period at all with it, unfortunately I do but it has really helped.

The other thing is do you have any dd's who've started periods? Dd1 started a few months ago and this month we both started on the same day, which may explain why my periods have been getting closer recently.
