(33/F/Married/Trying to conceive) March 29 po ako nagkaroon, akala ko po delayed po ako ng ilang araw (April 25 po ang expected period ko)Usual po na 28 days oi ang cycle ko. spotting lang po ng April 29 hanggang naging moderate flow na reddish at hindi po ako nakaramdam na dysmenorrhea. super mild na cramps lang sa puson ko po. Ang usual na period ko po ay hindi ganoon ang color at kpag period naman maraming blood clots at nag koconsume po ako ng 3 sanitary napkins per day. This period po 1 lang na sanitary at panty liner at hanggang ngayon may dark color na discharge naman. Noong April 30 biglang sumakit ang tiyan ko. Akala ko magbabawas lang ako pero may bumagsak na about 2 inch na blood clot. Inisip ko na regla lang po sya. Noong nagstart ang spotting ko, hindi na nawala ang sakit ng ulo ko hanggang ngayon po May 3, 2018. March 26 nagpa blood test nman po ako at negative. Kaya iniisip ko na period lang po talaga. Nagtataka lang po ako sa condition ko kase hnd nawawala ang heache, at until now yung discharge ko hnd parin natatapos which is very unusual sa akin. kase ang period ko po 1st day light, 2nd day mid flow 3rd light flow hanggang sa mawala na po. Worried po ako. May naranasan na po ba kayo na ganito? I need your advice po. Maraming maraming salamat!

Hi! It looks like ito na ang period mo for the month. Your headache maybe secondary to othee causes and may not be direftly related sa periods mo. Or, it may be nagsstart na ang pre menopausal stage mo if in case you also feel hot flushes and magtuloy tuloy na irregular ang period mo. But i think it is still early for that but it is possible. Kung hanggang ngayon ay patuloy pa dn ang discharge mo ng kakaunti/ kapirranggot na dugo, it is better that you see an OB GYN upang ma assess ka ng personal
