I'm a little worried because for the past 23 months, my periods havent been normal. There's only a tiny bit of bleeding, not the usual red blood, and it only lasts for a couple of days. Plus, I'm not experiencing the stomach aches that I used to get. Could this be related to PCOD or something to do with infertility?
Irregular periods, light bleeding, and reduced stomach cramps can be symptoms of various conditions, including Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or Polycystic Ovary Disease (PCOD). These hormonal disorders can disrupt ovulation, leading to irregular periods, infertility, and other symptoms like acne, excess hair growth, and weight gain. Other possible causes include hormonal imbalances, thyroid issues, or stress. It's essential to consult a healthcare provider or gynecologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, especially if you're concerned about infertility or other related health issues.
