My Irregular Regular Period

Posted by: aperfectingangel on Thu Aug 7, 2008
I'm 27 years old.
My grandmother and mother both had the same type of period I do - so I'm thinking it's in the genes?
My period comes every 3 months and when it does it's super heavy - so much that I've never been able to use a tampon because it wouldn't absorb it all in time.
And my period lasts for about 7 days.
Cramps are usually painful only the first day - then no cramps.
People have tried to tell me about endometriosis, cysts, etc. But I've gotten normal paps all my life and I think it's just genetics!
I've been on birth control pill in the past and it regulated my periods - but I can't get on them now because we are trying to get prego!

If anyone else has this same type of period could you let me know? I would like to know that I'm not the only one! And also if you have had children, please tell me because it would make me feel better about having an irregular regular period! TY! ;)
