My body

Unread post by Lala »

I had my period about 2 weeks ago. And if it matters I have never had sex. But every time I eat I get cramps after. And my lower back has been hurting and randomly I get cramps. And yesterday I looked at my underwear and there was this black discharge. Like the kind you get before your period but black. That only happened once. But all this has been happening for the past 2 weeks, and because of the eating thing I have lost 6 pounds in 1 week. And no I'm not trying to starve myself I'm just not hungry

Hi Lala,

We really can't know what's causing this since we can't examine you over the internet, but weight loss that significant and unusual discharge means that it's a good idea to check in with your doctor to see what's going on.
