I have recently lost ten pounds, now once i day i get period like bleeding?

Question

okay so this started after my boyfriend and i split.

it was a very hard break-up.

on top of that my dad is dealing with very serious

health issues. so it messed with my eating habits..

i guess from being so upset i just haven't really been

eating. like one meal a day.. and i've lost about 10 pounds

in a week and a half..

and recently i've been experiencing irregular bleeding,

maybe once a day, usually right when i wake up.

or sometimes a bit of spotting. and its been going on

for like 2 weeks maybe. or less. i'm not completely sure.

so i'm wondering if its just stress or is something really

wrong with me.

Answer 1

You have been emotionally suffering very badly and all your routines have gone out of the window so yes I think you are suffering stress.

You could try Valerian from a Herbalist shop. It could help you a lot just now. You could also buy the meal replacement drinks - they are milky, some have flavours and all contain vitamins & proteins you need each day. This way you will be giving your body what it needs without having to face the diffficulty of eating.

If none of this works then I think you should ask your Doc for something to help you cope with the stress.

I do hope you will soon be feeling better. You sound to have had a really hard time of late. Best wishes. UK
