Strange Periods

[Claire2009]

My periods used to be regular, every month, would begin anytime from the 17-20th and last 4-5 days.
Then last couple of months they have changed, I had a period in Jan 17-22nd, then again in Feb 7-12th.

Now they seem to have changed, they come during the 5-10th and are very painful, achy backs, cramp stomach and heavy periods, also evil PMT.

I've not been to the doctors about it as I assumed its just one of them things...

Should I go to the doctors or is it in fact ...one of them things?

I'm 24 with 2 Children.

it could just be one of those things, but to put your mind at ease, maybe you should see you're doctor. You know your body best

if you are having heavy periods you run the risk of being aneamic so it is best to get it checked
the doc may well do blood tests and send you for a scan

Thanks for the replies

I am very very tired this last 5mths or so, that may be due to being a single Mum to 2 Toddlers though
