Period on the fritz

in September 2015 Moms
After my first pregnancy my period went right back to normal even being put on birth control. After this pregnancy, I've had short long late and early periods. I have the nuva ring since 6wks pp. I have no idea how to get back in sync. I don't really want to waste a Dr trip on myself for this reason. It doesn't seem dire but it is inconvenient. Has anyone had this problem?

    Yes! Mine are normal as far as when I can expect to start, but I just recently got my IUD placed and I have been spotting a ton. I'm hoping it corrects in time but I feel your pain. Have you had Nuva ring before? It could just be the way your body is reacting and/or adjusting. Or if you're still BF then you might not get regular until you wean.

    Thats why I'm a little confused what's happening because I'm not breastfeeding and I was on the ring for years before getting pregnant. Sounds like a dumb question but can bc become less effective the more you use it? Maybe I just need to change it.

    Lurking here but I have been having similar issues.  There is no patter to my cycles (or lack there of) so my Dr just put me on provera to try and kick start my body into normalizing.  I would at least call your Dr as they may have some advice, or at least they can note it in your file for the future.

    Maybe call the nurse line & ask?  Thats what i am going to do.

     I got a tubal ligation after i had the boys & my period has been absurd! I had my regular cycle back right away after my 6 week pp check up. But since February, my cycle has been longer& longer (this last cycle was 40 days, ised to be 28) & my periods shorter.  My cramps have gotten worse as well. It could be because i weaned off of pumping in February? Idk. But it sucks because now i never know when im goong to get it. 

    Hope you find out whats going on soon!
