Has anyone else experienced this?
My periods have been a mess since going off BCPs. I started taking Vitex, I think in December last year because I was so irregular and hadn't had a period in about 3-4 months, once I started taking it I spotted every 3-4 weeks but nothing that I would call a 'period'. Then finally in April I had a massive blow out of a period that lasted almost 2 weeks and was extremely heavy (TMI - had to change my tampon every 1-2 hours and bled through almost everything I wore), then 32 days later I had a light/spotty period for about 5 days and now AF showed 10 days early and I'm having another extremely heavy one right now. Anyone know why it would be heavy every other month? Maybe my light/spotty week was ovulation and my cycles are really 52 days long?! I've never experienced such heavy periods until going off the pill, before and during I would have light-medium ones that only lasted 3-4 days.
