    Af! Wtf??

    My period finished about 2 weeks ago. If that.
    Today it is back

    WTF?!
    It can't be anything good. I'm only in my 30's this is way to early for perimenopause.

    I'm freaked out and scared.

    not cool. I would wait a couple of days to make sure that it is AF proper and be making an appt to your GP. could be mid-cycle bleeding around Ovulation (i used to get that as part of my endo symptoms).

    or maybe just an over-eager cycle?? is this the first time? or has it happened before?

    I had an eager cycle earlier this year. I got AF on cd 13. I'm not peri-menopausal. I think it's just one of those things. Don't freak out

    I have had a few cycles over the last year that have been 13-18 days very annoying, but rest are 25-39 days!! Yep all over place now.

    Mine seems to have gone to 21 days over the last 4 months totally over it! I am taking vitex to try and get it back to 28 as I don't want to go back on the pill. Not having any tests done yet as I have got any other symptoms of menopause yet.

    Are your cycles normally very regular? Ovulation bleeding maybe? Don't get freaked just yet

    Is there anything else to cause you concern about your health? Other wise I don't think you really need to panic just yet.

    I wouldn't worry about it.
    Are you on the Pill/Depo/Merina? All of these can cause the odd bout of bleeding.

    I had a bleed with ovulation once. I concieved DD3. I couldn't figure anything out about her conception from time of last AF. Was really confusing. Only time in my life it has ever happened!

    I think I've heard that travel can affect af - perhaps your Japan trip has something to do with it?

    I didn't even know that was a sign of perimenopause. My last 3 cycles have been average 20 days, and I have thinking of maybe getting some blood tests.

    Similar thing happened to me this month. I got AF on CD20 with full on flow, started spotting on CD17 (cycle is always 29 days). Never happened to me either, except I'm 42 so I initially suspected pre menopause. I've got an appointment to my doc in 2 weeks so I'll ask him what's it all about. I have been pretty stressed lately with taking over a new business so maybe it's just that..

    When I recently went overseas my cycle went haywire and I had an annovulatory cycle of 53 days. Going overseas can definitely affect your cycle.
