Anyone with irregular periods? I've not have my period for more than six months already. Any nice
gayne to intro not so expensive one (will be good if he/she have experience in this area)? I'll be getting married next year and would like to have a baby soon.
 


why not eat royal jelly or lecithin to regulate ur menses? These are supposed to balance ur hormones release. It works for me. U can buy these capsules at GNC. However, it is better to take Chinese herbal soups containing ingredients like Dongguai, HeShouWu or Red Dates to boost your uterus. Exact proportions pls check with medical halls. My colleague told me BaiFongWan is useful, but I've never tried...

I also had this problem last time but was due to a depression period, so after I pickup my normal life, my menses came back after a yr or so. Are you under some kind of stress or big change in lifestyle? You need to visit a gynae asap as if you did not have your period for 6 mths, chances are, the 6 mths storage might have caused some infections. Whats your weight like? It can be also due to heavy weight as well.

Having irregular menses will lower your chances of conceiving.I went to Teresa Women Clinc in AMK, very ex leh, total I paid $250-$280 for consultation, scanning etc.

Im not sure where you stay but there is a clinic in AMK Central(KK WOmen's clinic) it should be cheaper there.
 
Hi yule, bleue

Thks for your advice actually i looking for a gynae trying to look for a nice one because i been to one gynae the last time and she told me its ok can wait till i want to get pregnant then take medicine to increase my hormones. But i dun want to wait leh i want to be "normal" at the same time also afraid i will not be able to conceive in future.
 
Hi fond,
If you go to the gynae, they will almost surely recommend that you take medicine to regulate your hormones right?
I've had that problem of irregular menses since young but it has slowly improved over the years(altho I still can't predict when it will be due except from signs of sugar craving and occasional backaches a week before). Have you always had the problem or only recently?

Not sure if this helps, but I started taking EPO (Evening Primrose Oil) the past 3 months and since then, my 'timing' has become more consistent. You want to give it a try? After all, it's a natural help supplement that is good for complexion too?
 
dear all

i suggest you go see a gynac/doc to diagnose the cause of the irregular periods.

i also had irregular periods and was diagnosed in 2001 with MRI that i had a microadenoma (pit. gland). now under medication to bring the growth of the microadenoma, periods regular now.

better to be safe than sorry.
 
hi microad

Why do you need a MRI scan for irregular period? I thought normally they only do ultrasound? Is this recommended by your gynae?
How much does a MRI scan cost? Mind if you let me know who is your gynae? Sorry to trouble you but i really need help in this area. If possible can let me know more details either post here or email me at [email protected] Thks so much.
 
Recently i also hv irregular period. My problem is i got vaginary infection last month i think is caused of intercourse??? sometime got a little blood, if not is brownish or yellowish, 1st it's also smelly like man sperm. Then i wento clinic & a cream 2 apply then it cure after 1 week & period was coming. Then around 2 weeks later i took contraceptive pills, which the 1 take after intercouse, then not more than a week period was coming, i mean not more than 2 weeks time after the period end last time. now just finished. 1st i thought no more problems, cuz mayb i took contraceptive pills so it came again within a week, but after this period finished, still got some yellowish & a bit brownish, feel not comfortable then again yesterday i applied cream. I think i got infection again!!! Hope it'll end very soon.
 
hi microad

Just hope you will visit this trend again. Are you the one who sent me a email on the recommendation for your gynae? You mentioned that
you have benefits with NUH right? If it really you can email me the details again? So sorry to trouble you my computer crash recently and lost all my emails, thks once again. If it not you pls let me know need to find back the kind soul, thks.

gynae are usually specialist in women's problem and their charges are costlier. You may see a GP also, unless the medication prescribe if any doesn't solve your problem.

is better to consult doc if you really do not menstruate as individual problem differ.
 
I have irregular periods too, and whenever they come, I get abdominal pain and excessive bleeding. I've been seeing a gynae at KK Hospital since March and was told I'm having hormonal imbalance. And the only thing they could do is to give me hormone pills (I opted for family planning pills now since the hormone pills cause me to drop a lot of hair) and painkillers which is quite excruciating because my condition has not improved. This condition is affecting my social life somehow because I don't dare to step out my house whenever I'm having my periods because there are a few times when I stained my pants or skirts...anyone suffering from the same condition? If you've any remedies or good gynaes to recommend, let me know too!
 
Hi Yunn, oh wow really? I've been taking red bean soup quite frequently lately...so it's perfect! i hate to depend on my iron pills...when i bleed too much..thanks dear! =]
 
Hi Geri,
Agree with Yunn that red bean soup is a good alternative for iron intake. You may want to take green bean soup too if u need aid in digestion.
 
Hi Geri
not at all!

Hi northgal
but green bean soup may 2 cold 2 our body, especially gals wif irregular menses, 2 'liang2' in Mandarin.
 
Hey gals..yup..I've also heard about green bean soup being too 'cooling' for the body...and it actually causes more bleeding during periods...and I remember seeing it somewhere...red bean has better benefits to the body than green bean..though it's more 'heaty'..but its more 'Pu' (tonic)...red bean also aids constipation =]
 
Yup. red n green bean belong to e 'heat' n 'cool' catergory respectively. Red bean is tonical in e sense that it help to build up red blood cell. I am only suggesting green bean to aid in digestion, in case of constipation.
 
I was at a Chinese medicine hall today..and the person there told me that eating 'brown beans' (translated from Teochew, i don't know the real English name of it, it's the same kind of 'red bean' that people use in selling ice kachangs)...is better than red beans itself...it's not too heaty compared to the normal red beans..and yet relieves constipations...i cooked a pot today..and my family loves it..because the beans don't taste as 'dry' as normal red beans =]
 
Chinese herbs do help! =) seen from flowerpod that Herbalife also helps... Cos its like Chinese med, made from herbs... no chemicals.. thik its worth a try!
 
me also heavy this delay menses ..delayed for two mth den go see doc .take the 20 days med..come le.but den this mth delay again. very worry too..wonder if it my diet ( how i eat)...
red bean is it too sweet if buy outside ? evening primose oil i taking for one mth plus.hope it can help me adjust but how mani pills u guys take each day ?
 
Dear Jessy,

what do you mean by the 20 day med? do you keep a recod of when your mensus come de? cos maybe some ppl more than e 28 day cycle.. =) i take a 1000mg of EPO everyday.. =) hv you tried chinese doctors or anything? or r u too stressed??

not under stress but i believe diet..since i read up so issue shown on the web..that maybe i dont have enuff body fat that y may also causes the menses to be delay...
 
i have irregular periods too. can b fr 1 mth to 6 mths. didn't wan to take western med coz worried may have some side effects... so went for acupunture. it finally came abt 3 wks later after that acupunture session. but now, seems to stop again.

jessy... i believe weight issue also have some relation to the irregularity. r u underweight?
 
Hi Levynn

Do you mean your menses has delayed again. If you are overweight or underweight, stress and other factors can also cause irregularity. As hormone do need the fat to generate.

Age could be a factor as well. Main thing could be imbalance of hormone. You may need natural hormone to balance it. You may want to call or email me.
 
hi Levynn,

You could take evening primrose oil to help regulate your hormones. It contains GLA (an essential fatty acids)which is important for ladies.

I used to have irregular periods when I was in younger. Used to take hormone tablets when I visit the gynae. Now am normal..

you can choose from the many brands available, look for cold-pressed ones.

but am not underweight. Have you gone on dieting before?
 
Hi levynn

I am not a doctor but a woman who has not "listen" to her body function. Our body will tell if there is a problem thru various symptoms eg fatigue, cold hand and feets, and journey to help myself by trying alternative method to help balance my system.

Let me tell during the school days, I was on a plump side (60 kg) I have no problem in my menses and got pregnant within 6 six months of marriage. Over the years while combining with work and taking care of baby. I have become very thin. (48.6 kg for 1.63m).

I too suffer from irregulat menses. My hormone was imbalance and suffer for a few years before I realised there is such thing as premenopause (which can happen from 30s to 50s).

I have used natural hormone to balance my body function. I have gained some weight.
 
sorry... MIA for some time... couldn't rem the thread subject n took some time to find this back.

anyway, i've been taking evening primrose pills for some time. but according to wat it said... if no period, juz need to take 1 each day?

btw, i've never went for any dieting b4... been on the skinny side for a long time.
 
hi geri
i love the kinda of red beans...very soft and nice! yummy...

hi levynn
perhaps u can try taking pills for abt 3-6 months to regulate yr hormones first and then once itz back on track, u can stop the pills lor.
 
Hi anyone know where can i find Doc Chen mei er?
I need the address of her clinic urgently. Pls help.. Thank you very much...

Chen Mei er is at a clinc called EverSpring Acupuncture and tonic centre.

Hi

I have irregular menses.i.e. 2 periods per month. The flow is not so much.. but it last for 7 days.
i took the bai feng wan from yu ren sheng when my period cleared 2 days ago. The menses come back after the day... i am scared... i am not sure what happened to cause my menses come back. Can anyone tell me?
 
Hi everyone!

I used to have iregular menses which is caused by my inbalanced hormones. Because of my imbalanced hormones, I also have outbreaks on my cheeks area nonstop.... Was so depressed... I also have very bad cramps....

Anyway, I was thinking to cure my pimples and irregular menses, i must tackle my hormone problems first. So i tried EPO, bai feng wan but also no use. So i tried a TCM medicine which finally works for me. My menses have been coming regularly now, cramps so much better now and best of all my complexion better too. Initially was still thinking whether to go for chemical peeling... but no need liao... Hee......
 
Hi charlene,
Bai feng wan only treat the symptom, not the root of the problem. How long has the menses been irregular?
 
Hi to All, just change your existing brand of sanitary napkin/panty liner to LoveMoon with patented anions sanitery napkin/panty liner(chemical-free) will resolve ur mense problems:-)
 
Hi all,

I also having irregular since I study secondary schools till now. Recently even worse, got spotting for few days before my menses come,, especially when I under stress and the duration stretches till 7 days. I was thinking of visiting a chinese doctor for the hope to cure my problem. So can anyone intro me? Not too ex as I still studying part time, so on tight budget.

Thanks~
 
Hi Cooling

I went to a GP for hormone level checking, but the result has shown my hormone is working alright.. I was in overseas now, I couldnt go to the Eu ren sang to ask for more details. My mother helped me to ask one of the sensei in eu ren sang, the sensei said i am too weak, so i will bleed after i took the bai feng pills.

i am not sure if what her said is correct, do you have any idea?
 
I used to have very irregular menses, its either once every 2 months or sometimes once in 6 months, i went to seek chinese sinseh for help and now i am on chinese medication and accupunture and so far my menses have been regular and not much pain as before...
 
Hi ladies,

Perhap can try out tis product name F-essence.It contain Resina Draconis Daemonorops which believed to treat blood disorders. It also improve blood circulation, increase volume of blood in coronary and reduce blood viscosity. After taking tis product, it really help to elimated all the menses cramp and sympton.
 
For menses problem,I would recommand Borage seed oil.
It can
- relieves discomfort during women’s monthly cycles
- Help in burning off fats naturally
- Alleviates water retention
- Promotes better skin, hair and nail conditions

Please PM me if you are interested.
 
There is also another alternative, the gynae might suggest you taking contraceptives that can actually help in regulating menses. Maybe can try?
