What Causes Headache And Strong Iron Like Smell In Period?
I am 2 weeks late (well 15 days now). All I've been is tired completely. Headaches a few.. Small and lite twinges or cramps... And no other symptoms am waiting till my next missed period 05/27 to do a test. I thought and my boyfriend thought I was going to start due to every time we have sex and there is a strong smell of iron usually a period is not to far behind... In this case no period... I still have a strong iron smell but no discharge or spotting or nothing.. Am just tired and small cramps...
