Suggest Treatment For Allergy

Hello?I'm a 24 year old female with no medical history or allergies whatsoever. Over the last year, my menstrual cycle has decreased in occurrence. In fact, it comes every 4 months. The first time this happened, I was terrified I was pregnant because I also began producing a sticky, yellowish clear fluid from my breasts-10 pregnancy tests (including one administered by a physician) indicated that I was not pregnant. When I do get my period, it comes with tremendous bruising on my hips, thighs and sometimes forearms. My appetite is very poor. I have had had my iron levels checked but all signs point to normality. I do not carry health insurance and simply do not have the means of diagnostic testing. Any idea what might be going on with my poor body?

Hi thanks for posting your query on health care magic.

Menstrual disturbances in your age group point to some underlying endocrine abnormality, most likely thyroid hormone disturbances .

I suggest you to get screened by complete thyroid profile.

correction of thyroid abnormality can correct menstrual irregularities if any.

Bruising on hips and thighs and forearms has to carefully evaluated through blood coagulation testing like BT ,PT,INR.

AN ULTRASOUND of the abdomen helps to visualize and detect any co existent abnormality.

consult your gynecologist for further queries.
thank you.
