I was wondering if any of you have had 3 periods in about a months time? I started on the 13th of May, the 1st of June and then on the 25th of June. It is nice to know that I am not pregnant but this is just too much for me. The cramping, bloating, and mood swings are really getting to me. I do currently take estrogen, but have for the last 6 years.

So What Happened?

I found out that I was taking too much estrogen. They changed the pills i had been taking and I didn't realize it. I have started a new estrogen cream. It is working and it smells really good. Thanks

At the age of about 35 I started having several periods a month and very heavy bleeding, as well. I started using Progesterone Cream made by 'Jason' and it helped for a few years. I have been taking Pre Menapausal Complex from Shaklee for about 1.5 years and have had no problems since starting the Complex. C.

V., menstural cycles can run typical 21 to 28 days, it looks like your body decided to go to a 21 day cyle. It literally sucks, I've been living with this my entire life, on period one week, off two, back on. When I was younger I was put on depro shots after the birth of my first son, stopped my periods all together. Loved it, no period for more that 15 years, went off it, had my second child Female 17 months old, first son 19 years old, I'm now 40 and my cycle went right back to the 21 days. I keep track on a calendar of when I start, and it usually is 21-23 days from the day I last started. So your not alone out here!

Hi,
My name is C. and I was just wondering how long it takes for the cream to work and if it really makes that much of a difference in how you feel? Also, what was the brand that you were taking that was giving you problems? My nutritionist has recommended that I use the cream, but it's kind of new to me and I'm still want to do some research before I use it.

Thanks,
C.

Something similer happened to me when I was a teenager. Your doctor can prescibe some meds to help regulate your cycles.Perhaps the estrogen you are taking is either too high or too low. Only your doctor can say for sure.

What a great post and responses! I'd love to know more about this cream. I'm having similar situation. May- 2 periods. June-nothing. July- 2 periods. I went to the Dr. and switched birth controls, and have had a regular cycle. However, since switching birth controls, I have developed a B.O. issue which the dr. said shouldn't be related, but I find it coincedentally weird. I have had 4 deodorants fail and have just been dealing with this for about 3 weeks. I'm also nearly finished with breastfeeding, extremely moody/depressed at times and just wondering if this cream might be a solution to all of my ailments. Is it prescribed or can you buy it over the counter?

I am familiar with the progesterone cream that Arbonne makes. It is bio-identical to what our bodies produce only after a certain age we don't produce what we used to. It is not prescription. It has done wonders for me because I used to have real heavy periods and severe cramps and now unless I am looking at the calendar I don't even know I am getting close to having my period. If anyone needs any info let me know. It has really helped with mood swings as well - hubby has even mentioned it!
