      Mine are never consistent and since starting an anti depressant as well as taking levothyroxine, it hasn't gone away in about 3 months šŸ˜­

      Mine were SO IRREGULAR!! Iā€™d have some that lasted 3 days and others that lasted about 14 days. Then I could go from 2 weeks to 3 months without anything! Then I would suddenly start spotting for a few days and just as suddenly it would stop. Cramps were always a crap-shoot as well. I could have extended periods with minimal pain or short ones with cramps so bad, I couldnā€™t even get out of bed!! But once I started taking birth control and reigning in my thyroid with Levothyroxine, things got very regular very quick! Now itā€™s every 28 days for 3-5 days, and the cramps are pretty standard but not unmanageable

      It has made mine irregular and very heavy at times

      I had a few months of irregular, heavy periods, before getting my diagnosis, I wish someone would have connected the two earlierā€¦ I do have to say that after I started my replacement drugs, it got much better and quickly!

      It sent too soon (tell me if you know how to delete your own comment). Mine are heavier AND longer. 8-10 days usually
