STAND ALONE NARRATIVE
IRREGULAR FLOW
Hi Stella , I don't know where this falls in but I need serious help.
I'm 21 years old ,yes, I started reading your blog when I was 17 or 16 ,lol, I love your blog because you hardly see Indecent pictures and I can open your blog in public lol.
Hi Stella , I don't know where this falls in but I need serious help.
I'm 21 years old ,yes, I started reading your blog when I was 17 or 16 ,lol, I love your blog because you hardly see Indecent pictures and I can open your blog in public lol.
Stella , I have been having irregular menstruation since I was 14 , I have never experienced regular menses , I don't even understand the concept of menstrual cycle.
The menses can flow for 2 to 3 weeks without stopping(sometimes light, sometimes heavy). I have been to gyneas and even consultants , I have been given drugs to regulate but still nothing. It stops the menses totally and after some months , the irregularity steps in.
I have done series of tests and doctors said I'm okay. I have tried traditional herbs and it didn't work, even some of the modern medicines starts to react badly in my tummy. I had se#x thinking it might regulate it, it did not.
I have never gotten pregnant.
Although I have learnt how to live with it but it disturbs even the color of clothes i wear and my activities. I'm tired of troubling my parents about it because they want me to get married early for they are scared I might not give birth(mind you, I have rejected 2 proposals and they know lol).
I will soon be done with school anyway but I don't want to rush into marriage.
What I need now is help , any suggestions as to what I can do to heal myself , prayers , traditionally or with modern drugs. I'm slowly getting tired of it and I'm scared it might affect me .
Let the Doctors and those who know step in please.....

I'm sorry for the inconveniences you have been going through. Since you have been to the doctors and they haven't been anle to do anything, i will suggest you accept the next marriage propsoal if the individual is serious and mature and financially responsible.
ReplyDeleteYour parents are right to be worried. Don't blame them.
My cousin had thesame issue but she mistakenly got pregnant and after she had her baby, her cycle has become regular 5days menstrual flow and cycle length 21days.
DeletePlease try to date with purpose and get married on time, i think you are dealing with Pcos and i want to believe that your chances of getting pregnant is higher at this age, so you might want to give marriage a chance.
I had an irregular cycle too, i could go up to 5mths without period, but after i fell pregnant in 2016, my cycle has become 32/33 days on the average.
Don't let it bother you, you will definitely conceive but the earlier you start trying, the better...
Go to a fertility hospital, they'll tell you what tests to run. Sounds like PCOS though
DeleteIts actually a hormonal issue with may likely have fertility repercussions. Just see a fertility doc, my friend also suffered from this but was advised to get married early so she could start trying for babies.
DeleteSince the period days are elongated, tracking the ovulation date becomes difficult but if you can, you are good to go.
Just go to a fertility clinic.
Marriage out of fear is not smart. Poster, irregular bleeding can be a symptom of fibroids. Have you done a scan?
DeleteGod is the greatest doctor. when human power stops, invite God to step in. Pray with faith. Don't think much of it but glorify God and him who has spare parts would replace them. Faith is what you need to connect.
ReplyDeleteSometimes u guys tire me. So all the people that have died or are suffering due to medical discomfort don’t have faith?? Or they didn’t pray enough? This religious mania tire person
Delete16:26 but poster has consulted doctors and used traditional herbs.
DeleteOFFICIAL PRESTIGE offered a sound advice because where human knowledge (scientific etc) ends, God's wisdom and power go beyond.
Poster, go to God in prayers by faith in the finished work of Christ Jesus .
This family friend of ours has neither a womb nor menstruates (except on medication) but she conceived not once but three times and birthed her babies. All by faith in Jesus Christ.
She had earlier consulted the best doctors in France ALL TO NO AVAIL.
She's not even Nigerian though an African, married to a Nigerian. Notwithstanding language barrier, this beautiful lady attended our prayer meetings, studied her Bible (French translation) and by faith received her fruits of the womb. I actually went to the studio with her for the photoshoot of her first pregnancy.
Her husband loved her and stood by her through it all.
Please, shun premarital sex. Your body is God's temple.
It would be good you heed your parents' advise and marry early but marry for love and the right reasons.
Stop fooling yourself, some people have died because they did not have faith. God has given us all his word and he does not love some more than others. Always stay in faith because you don't know how yours will turn out. Cos some died after praying does not mean your case will be different. I know some that have faith have died because it was God's plan but you are not to refuse praying because others have died
DeleteIrregular menses most times has to do with hormonal imbalance. I had to pause when I read where you said you go 2-3 weeks non stop flow that's not normal and I think you should visit an experienced gynaecologist.
ReplyDeleteMy dear, also some challenges you need to face them with putting your body under subjection using the Word of God and watch things that used to be abnormal turn normal. A lot of things has changed for me when I went down that road.
You are right and it looks like she has PCOS. Try and loose some weight and reduce carbs/sugar.
DeleteThe earlier you see a gynae the better your symptoms are managed and controlled
Yes it's a result of hormonal imbalance. If you're in Port Harcourt, drop a comment and i will refer you to a specialist.
DeletePoster my roommate in Uni had same issue and continued till date. She got married early last year and already has a baby boy. So I don't think it affects your fertility
ReplyDeleteCheck for fibroid and endometriosis
DeleteThis is serious,did the gyne mention hormonal inbalance???there is something wrong somewhere
ReplyDeleteEat healthily and clean
ReplyDeleteDo daily exercises
Avoid sex as much as possible
If the doctors have tried and failed have you tried God ? He’s the greatest doctor , you can fast and pray and start thanking God in advance for total healing. While at ay pls don’t v sex or do anything that can hinder prayers .
ReplyDeleteIf the doctors say that you are "okay," you have done a good job by presenting yourself to them for evaluation.
ReplyDeleteEven Jesus says that "the sick needs a doctor"Matthew 9:12.
My ajuju is, Why rush to herbs and concoctions? Isn't it a sure way to
scatter your organs and unknowingly get into diabolism that you did not bargain for?
If you buy a brand new car with maintenance warranty for one year, do you rush it to the roadside mechanics
when it gets bad instead to the manufacturer/authorized dealer in your city?
Don't you know that in the Word of God (the creator) is the "warranty" for this life (if anything goes wrong in our bodies and the doctors hands off) and eternal life.
Why not go to God, the creator of this body -in prayer and fasting/studying his Word?
Why not seek God instead of seeking and drinking what you do not know?
Sincere ajujus o.

DeleteWhere have you been na??
@Baeis
DeleteNa me o; my writing no get imitation.

"sisters" inugo? 😊😊😊😊😊
Oversabi idiot. Always doing ITK.. Do you not know that herbs are the best? The drugs you take are from where? The only problem is taking them from people who can control the dosage for you... Na the foils wey dey hail you for this blog I blame.. Always doing oversabi... Ewu
DeleteHave you done hormonal profile, transvaginal ultrasound pap test to see if there is something that triggers it . If all test turned out to ok then you should relax and put all your strength in God.
ReplyDeleteGood day Stella. Hope you are doing well? I am still waiting tirelessly for you to post my chronicle, so anxious. Hope you have not forgotten or skipped it? Still waiting.
ReplyDeleteMay God heal u in jesus name
ReplyDeleteThe good Lord will heal you just go to a teaching hospital and see a consultant gyne ,pls stop all these herbal product which you don't know their composition and may be injurious to your health more over keep praying
ReplyDeleteGo to a general hospital.
ReplyDeleteYour parents are not helping matters at all. You told them important stuff like this and the next thing is for you to get married and be a burden to your husband. Mtchewww
ReplyDelete💃💃💃💃 finally I'm free from glo and chrome wahala... I have missed coming here😥... Glo nor gree allow person use data enter SDK. Puffin browser came to my rescue. Ahhhhh who missed me 💃💃💃💃💃💃
ReplyDeleteWelcome back.
DeleteThis happens to me a lot as well I actually thought the site is the one with d problem
DeleteAirtel does so too. I do double recharge because of this page. Only mtn lets me in
DeleteLet me go anonymous.
ReplyDeleteIt's was not like these when I started seeing my period.
Have spent money...gone to different hospital,taken different herbal concoctions.
Even attend different churches yet no solution.
Sometimes it will come but won't stop
Will have to use drug to stop it..
It will take like 3 to 4 month before it will come again.
Spent money...now am even tired of taking drugs or anything let they Lord have is way.
You need to stick with one doctor and get all tests done... abdominopelvic scans, hormonal profile. Off the top of my head I would think PCOS, fibroid, endometriosis, adenomyosis, in that order.
DeleteI would strongly Suggest to your doctor to put you on birth control pills if there are no contraindications in your case, it will lessen your flow and any pain that you have.
Ndo
Please stop worrying about it. I had thesame issue but mine started with my first period, the only difference being that i flow for 5days and skip 2mths or 3mths. Just like you, i spent so much money on fertility clinics to no avail but a certain doctor asked me to stop spending money and relax, he told me his wife had same issue (hormonal imbalance) but they have kids now, and he told me how they were able to achieve pregnancy, so i will advice you to relax and try to eat healthy, drink alot of moringa with lemon and ginger, exercise too, you will be fine.
DeletePlease what did the Doctor tell you about "how they were able to achieve pregnancy." I really need to know. I sincerely believe it would be beneficial to me and other people. Thank you in advance for your response.
DeleteEnter your comment...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure someone typed this on my behalf..this is exactly my problem and I have spent all my savings on hospitals,gyna et all.. but then its still there..it started the same age with yours and it always last for 3 weeks..I've learnt to live with it
Please go to a specialist hospital as well..It could be ovarian cysts..Check if it is malignant or benign..It will normalize with time. I pray God heals you..Amen
DeleteAmen.
DeleteI think you have high prolactin. A simple drug though expensive can cure it. I suggest you go to a proper gyneacologist not just regular one. I was cured of similar issue after wrong diagnosis from inexperienced gyneacologist. Above all God is your helper.Remember you didn't create yourself.
ReplyDeleteCan you please give her the contact of the gynecologist that helped you or the name of the hospital coz there are several O and G doctors out there claiming they are good but they don't know anything.
DeleteGood suggestion.
Delete@Silence send the number/contact of your consultant gynaecologist to Stella so the poster and others in similar situation could reach out if they need it.
@ silence can you help withe the name of the hospital.
DeleteLovelace
You cannot just call it high prolactin cus i did have that and it usually comes with breast milk, plus it nevee affected my circle.
DeleteWhatever the case, i suggest she goes for a hormonal test, that will rule out some issues like high prolactin.
May the Lord perfect your cycle. Please, keep telling God about it. It is well with you.
ReplyDeleteI think you should see a good gynaecologist and keep praying .
ReplyDeletePoster don't be afraid. I also experience same issue right from my teenage age. I have learn to live with it. Gone to hosipitals, did hormonal test more than 3times, also visit a traditional doctor that treat women, it did not stop the issue. What I always do is going for scan yearly to check my reproductive organ. My organs are fine and am not worried. Getting close to 30 and not yet married. All I do is to be hopeful and believe that when it's time for child bearing, the good Lord will perfect it all.
ReplyDelete👌
Delete15:55 it will be done unto you according to your faith. AMEN! 🙏
DeleteAmen. Thanks
DeleteIt happened to me too in 2017. ...it was terrible period... My period of 3 days only become 26days often.. Doctor kept me hooked on combination 1 pills but once I stopped taking d pills.. The flow would start again... Doctor said either I loss weight or have a baby... No proposal in sight... So I started working out everyday.. Change my diet... After a long time stopped d pills and it worked... Now I'm back to 3 days period regular.. But I still maintain my work out and diet...
ReplyDeleteDon’t worry sweetie. It won’t affect your fertility in Jesus name Amen
ReplyDeleteMy dear,Cinnamon is your best friend,had the same issue read all about it,till i stumbled on how cinnamon was used in ancient days to regulate the menstrual flow.I drank it for just 2 days and my body became normal,blood stopped and my period came normally and since then ive been fine.One cup of warm water with a teaspoon of cinnamon both morning and night cured me.It might work for you,try it.First time commenting in over 4 years of reading stellas blog#yaay#
ReplyDeletePoster, have you tried taking Primolut N, a doctor recommended that to me as i experienced this growing up, i could also stay months without seeing my period, i used the medications for some months and got better, my period is like clockwork now. Goodluck.
ReplyDeleteAm currently on primolut N. I still experience pain when I stop taking it and heavy flow still persist. I don't know what to do again.
DeleteLovelace.
Poster I want to correct one impression in your write up where you said your parents want you on get married early and since you are an ardent blog visitor I believe you must have read other chronicles here..Please dont marry because you want to correct something in your life or because of your parents..Marry when you are ready and mature mentally, financially, emotionally,spiritually and otherwise..You are not marrying because you want to have babies, marriage is more than that..Kindly remove or work on that mentality.
ReplyDeleteNow you need to carry out tests like hormonal profile, high vaginal swab and scan for any polyps or cysts and visit a specialist hospital not just any hospital you see on the road. .I know of someone who suffered same fate but now her period has regularize on its own..I will not recommend traditional medicine so you don't mess or confuse your system..Just take your medication,pray to God and stop worrying yourself as it does not help matters..All the best..
I know someone that has this issue,i think you should download FLO,it's an app that's enables you monitor your menstrual circle,wether regular or irregular. Since the doctor said you are okay,give relationship and marriage a try.
ReplyDeleteTry taking cinnamon tea daily and do a lot of exercise.
ReplyDeletePoster I sympathize with you. First this is a classic case of hormonal imbalances. Most conventional drugs have limitations and will most likely not ‘cure’ the problem. Rather it will stop or manage symptoms.
ReplyDeleteI’m not going to lie it is a very tough journey.
However, maintaining a safe and good diet is VERY VERY essential with hormonal imbalance. A serious overhaul of diet is recommended.
E.g cut out totally; diary, sugar, gluten and any canned or processed food, Soy, cold room chicken and turkey(only eat old layer fresh chicken if you most). PLEASE google food that should be avoided for endometriosis and PCOS and MAKE SURE you avoid them.
I understand why your parents want to push you into marriage, hormonal imbalances gets worse with age and most times trigger infertility. The younger you are the most likely you have a higher chance of getting pregnant naturally. This is because hormonal imbalance causes more damage with each menstrual cycle.
Avoid every fizzy and sugary drinks, coffee, bread, ice cream etc.
It will be challenging at first but your body will adapt to the change. It’s not working less you making every food you eat.
Take Goron Tula. It works for people. You remove the seeds and wash and chew it as gum. you can also boil and drink the extract. You can Google it
ReplyDeleteHi dear these looks like hormonal inbalance.... Also PCOS. A fertility doctor/gynaecologist should help... Wish you well dear
ReplyDeleteHi dear, these looks like u have PCOS/HORMONAL INBALANCE... please a good gynaecologist should help.. wish you a better cycle..
ReplyDeletePlease poster,use STC30.
ReplyDeletePoster ur perfectly normally. I have a 1 or 2 day tiny flow period.
ReplyDeleteDoctor said i was fine .
D only downside is getting pregnant anyhow.
I got pregnant 5 times, thanks to not able to calculate cyle and failed birthcontrols.
Now am using IUD and pills coz d trauma of losing a baby is hard.
Thank God for my babies.
Better stay happy.
