I am 50, and I am in perimenopause, my periods have always been like clockwork up until about 2 years ago, when I had 3 major deaths in my family. I have had a lot of stress for many years, and the last 2 have been extremely stressful. Now my problem, I started spotting on & off for about 2 months, I came across Natures way Femaprin, and this got me back on track with my periods, that is until this past month, I am back to spotting I am on the 3rd week. I guess the Femaprin stopped working for me it was great for a year, now I am looking for some other over the counter pill I can take for this crazy spotting.
I have a couple questions. if I had something serious, could it mean nothing I take would stop the bleeding? I mean the Femaprin worked for over a year, then I am back to the same thing. A friend of mine said like all meds your body gets used to them, and maybe that happen with this. I am only spotting lightly not heavy some days not much other days it's every time I go to the bathroom. I am hoping if the next thing I try stops the spotting it will just mean it's normal, if it doesn't I am worried it's something serious. I hate going to the Dr. I haven't went much my whole life, and this constant spotting has me stressed out. I have emotional days I feel like I could explode, everything seems to set me off, I wake up sweating. I keep the a/c on 24/7. Some days I just feel like a crazy person, I have a hard time waking up, I am in a fog for a couple hours every day, like I can't wake up fully. Any help would be appreciated.
