My periods are irregular although that is starting to improve. They are more painful, the first couple were not too bad, but the last two have been awful, but they don't seem to last as long only 3 days, 1 not too bad 2nd day horrendous and day 3 tailing off. x

Post subject: AF is now back with a vengeance

I feel like i've just given birth, the pain is nasty even Ibuprofen isn't touching it.

My tummy is bloated and is now like this for up to two weeks before AF arrives (I look like i'm pregnant again Shocked

)

Sorry for tmi, but am noticing lots of large clots, is this normal????? Am also getting an upset tummy on the really heavy day, I almost feel like I can't leave the house for fear of having an embarassing accident.
