Thank you, I understand what you are saying. With what you said -" One thing we can do, however,that is within our scope, is help you figure out how to set the limits you need around things that trigger you if it turns out that's something you are having a hard time doing, or feel like you don'...

Sorry I was saying that I think I do have some sort of anxiety. I am just not sure if I want to have therapy or counselling for it at the moment, I am just not sure yet. The link was very helpful though thank you and it does include some things I worry about. I am going to stop doing things that wor...

I understand, thank you for the extreme patience, everything is just adding to my mind I can't think straight a lot of the time now. With managing my time, I struggle as it is. My life is so difficult to handle a lot of the time now and so I will need to figure that out but I am slowly adjusting. I ...

I don't want my mum questioning me on why I haven't got my period as she'll suspect things, things that I haven't done and will ask if I am pregnant which will increase this anxiety. Are there even people willing to discuss and help with anxiety about things that don't cause pregnancy, wouldn't they...

I don't know where to start with getting help though as I have no idea how to find it when the doctors dont take notice of me

I just get really paranoid about pregnancy as you probably know and now my period is two days late yet I have breast tenderness and cramping and know what a real risks are for pregnancy. I just want my period! What you said describes just how I have felt for a long time and my boyfriend is the one w...

I just haven't missed a period for 2 years now and have had stress many times still with normal periods. My period was meant to be Thursday, 28th day of the cycle, which hasn't happened for months so why is there no sign of a period to be seen? All I know is that I normally get breast tenderness bef...

Plus, you guys have said that there is no pregnancy risk from what I describe so that isn't a factor of strange cycles and this is why I don't understand what's wrong with my periods anymore. I haven't missed one in three years and I always get stressed but they always still came the exact same time...

Problem is, I don't know if 28 days is my regular anymore like it has been for two years, as it has suddenly changed and has been between 24-26 days until now :/ I mentioned to my doctor about this and they said doubt there's anything wrong as they say I have IBS so when I said I have pain in my low...

I guess my periods have varied a lot recently, all since my lifestyle changed and all the cycles have been from 21 days-29 days this year, especially since starting college and having lots of stress. Does growth also affect a period? It's possible right, because I have grown 2inches since my cycle l...

Just worried that there might be something health wise wrong with me as my period is late at the moment and it's the 28th day of my cycle and have been getting twinges of cramping pains since late last week. Then again I have increased the amounts I am eating as I wasn't eating enough. This is confu...

Hi, ratperson, I am not on birth control but I have got really bad IBS which is linked to digestion as well as lots of hard work from college and because of my IBS, I have cut down on A LOT of foods I used to eat, so that may be one of the many reasons for a shorter period as well as stress, change ...

Oh forgot to mention, is it possible for it to take a week to pass along the fallopian tubes and out? Just want to know and read the article which explains ALOT of what I wondered but didn't say specific or average days. Sorry if it's inconvenient me asking these questions but I had a few looks at t...

Oh ok I get it now thank you

Thank you this explains a lot :) On thing though, It says in the article "When an egg does get released, that cell starts slowly moving through the fallopian tube (and it is always slowly and gradually moving: it's not just sitting around waiting for sperm cells to call and ask it out)..."...

Hope this is on the right page, it is about the body so sorry if it isn't on the right page. I was wondering, how long does an egg last after being released from the ovaries? I have never known the answer and have looked on your period article but I couldn't find anything about it. :ugeek: They neve...

I guess I don't and he doesn't know what I feel if I don't tell him so he doesn't realise what I feel as I don't say. With the healthcare for anxiety issue, I don't know how I can get that help as my college work is demanding and have to spend two weeks doing work experience for college. I feel like...

Thing is, maybe there is slight pressuring occasionally somewhere in my relationship, and like you said pressuring isn't always linked to sexual things. I enjoy doing what we do at the moment but maybe I sense it somewhere, like some days I want to just stay home but he asks if we can meet up and ma...

Ok thank you that makes a lot of sense and I guess it's how people look out for themselves by not instantly trusting. With the worries of pressuring, I don't really know where it comes from, just media and what you hear about people or read in magazines I guess which I know has a negative on look to...

True, that is why I am wondering this as I know that your subconscious pics up on things even when you don't. Being honest, following the example you have given, he does leave it and asks me what I would like to do instead and if I suggest something doesn't try and change my mind. No when I say I do...

Hi, I have been going out with my boyfriend for a bit over four months now and I have realised that he has helped me in soo many ways that I never would have expected from a relationship. He is a great person, we get on really well and are very similar in our personality and we chatted for like seve...

Plus I am one of those people who take a bit longer to develop, especially compared to my sisters in terms of starting periods and not being 'flat chested' anymore .

Ok I understand it now thanks :) I read somewhere that if your period comes the same day each month or week then it's irregular? If I have that right, would that mean that my periods were always irregular as they used to come 28days at the weekends for 6months from when I was 15 to past 16 then chan...

It's just something that I have unanswered questions too, I always want to know stuff lol

Oh ok I was just concerned as I have never had a period like this before but that's reassuring :) I looked at the article linked above and it didn't answer the question I asked previously about if stress could make your period earlier or not. I was just wondering as I track my periods on my calendar...
