Oh Flouncy.. I could write a book!!! When my symptoms started 10 years ago, my GP tried to tell me my erratic periods were because I was getting close to menopause, I was only 39!! She never bothered to check my hormone levels which would have shown my growth hormones were way off the charts... Since my surgery, they are pretty normal, but now I am getting close to menopause (& I finally dumped my GP) Good Luck! Mishxx

Same here as all the above, after they were so heavy they started getting longer in between times,I never knew when to expect them. Then I had a very easy menopause,when I was 47. Have not missed having periods at all....

I am the same it went on for five weeks once.The doctor kept telling me I had stress but he put me on a tablet and it cleared it up for three years but the drug has lightened my period but its erratic at the moment.The thing I do watch is my iron levels I take a natural iron supplement not the doctors iron one because the tablet form is not as good because of the powder mixed in I was tested for my iron levels and they were better on the natural supplement I took and also you dont get black poos oh jokey you are all saying black poos.Yes black no 2s not good LMAO
