Since I started my periods at the age of 12 they have been really heavy and excrutiating pain that even cocodomol didn't touch for the first 2-3 days of the month. I went on the pill 3-4 years ago as my periods were not getting any better and I never knew when they were coming as it could be anywhere from the 28 days to 35 days. I am on Loestrin 30. Straight away my periods went regular and lighter.
Now though over the last 6 months they have suddenly gone almost pain free, sometimes get pain just before I start but when I start hardly any pain or none. My periods have gone lighter too and have finished by the time I start my pill again. By day 3 it's gone to just spotting. I am 31 and just worried as to what could be happening to make them lighter?
I get stabbing pains in my right ovary all month around, sometimes really painful. I was thinking a cyst but this would make my periods heavier and more painful. I bought a menopause test and that was normal so not sure what is going? I am happy they are almost pain free and lighter but just a tad concerned as to why after 4 years on the pill?
