Anna B Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 See a doctor. No one on here is qualified to give advice, but having a period for a month is not normal. You could be very low in iron by now, which will be playing havoc with allsorts of things. I repeat. Go and see a doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
this_life Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Craving chocolate is also a sign of a deficiency in 'metals' in the body, I think it might be magnesium. Sometimes it is triggered by too much coffee (caffiene), caffiene depletes 'metals' in the body, as does blood loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessimae Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 Thankyou for both of your advice + I will go to the doctors I never thought about things like iron, cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priorylady Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 there are a number of simple explanations for irregular or dysfunctional bleeding. Without knowing a lot more details about you it is impossible to give advice other than see your GP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
