Well, I didn't take much cohosh this cycle 1) I didn't feel I needed it, as if some devine intervention had happened????wtf was I thinking?!!! 2) I thought there was a chance I could be pregnant. Wellllll, I am NOT pregnant..... I just got the worst period I have had in 1/2 a decade!!!!! I have contractions/cramps like I haven't felt in years!!!!! Sadly, I even wound up taking a b.c. pill to try to fix the cramps. As much as I hate and despise morphine, I may go to urgent care to get a shot. I'm trying to hold out, as I handled these types of cramps for 13 years or so, and I know I'll make it through...I guess I'm just a cry baby now. I'm writing this between contractions--what I call my cramps, bc that's all I can think of that would hurt this bad!!! Next month, I'm going to ask my doc. what he thinks about a pituitary shot. Supposedly, that can regulate all your hormones. We'll see. Nice end for a 42 day cycle...... why couldn't I have been a boy?!

Nice. I called my mom to ask her about the pituitary hormone shot she received back in the 1970's for her periods (that is where i heard about it) and to ask her why she took it and what it did and all. ...she started taking it for cramps and to regulate the length of her cycle..... Allllll of this time, and my mom never told me that SHE had irregular cycles, too?! Annnnd cramps (although she said her cramps are not nearly as bad as mine)! Could it be that my mom had endo? Who knows. I can't wait to go to my gyne.

I'm sorry thats it's not good news:( I completely understand why you say they are contractions b/c I have described mine as the same thing and I even have the pressure in my butt like i did when I was in labor. My mother also suffered from Endo. and had a Hysterectomy. I never knew this til after the fact thats what I had and it would have been helpful to know before so I could have told my doctor and they may have found it sooner but, I guess you just don't know that for sure. She also had the bleeding like I also have. My doctor just switched my birth control pills and they seem to be working so far but, I'm keeping my finger crossed. Well I hope everthing goes better for you:)
