Two Periods A Month, Painful, Black Discharge With No Odor
I ve been having two periods a month. It happened as a kid and they put me on the pill . My pill Has changed a few times since. It then started happening again beginning of this year where I was having a period more or less every 2 weeks, so they changed my pill again. It s been normal for a few months and now it s doing it again. When it starts I just get almost general period pains, the only way I can describe is it feels like my ovaries hurt, it s only a dull ache though. When I first come on for the second time it s like a black discharge , there is no odour to it. Then a couple days later, it s pure clean red blood . Not like horrible period blood.

Hi Kirsty,
Thanks for posting your query.
You have troubling irregular vaginal bleed and it does not resemble natural periods to me.
The change in color of blood makes the thing more suspicious.
You might be having some local lesion which is causing the break through bleeding.
I would strongly advise you to get a hormonal assay and a ultrasound whole abdomen and get evaluated by an experienced gynecologist and try to get the exact cause of the trouble.
Hope I have answered your query.
If you have any questions I will be happy to answer.
