I have endometriosis (excision surgery in April 2023). My cycles have been irregular for a few years but the last few cycles were cramping on day 27 and bleeding on day 28. I’m in unchartered territory now. I started having abdominal pain on day 27 but its day 36 now and I haven’t started bleeding. I’m not in pain anymore but I feel off, tender stomach, slight cramping, pressure, bloating, irritable, tired, etc. This is the longest I’ve gone without a period. I did more exercise than I’m used to this cycle so I’m wondering if I didn’t ovulate. I had a check-in with a new doctor last week and she was like it’s “normal” for periods to fluctuate, take motrin…The usual things that have worked to get a late period started in the past did not work and I’m not pregnant.
I just want the discomfort to subside and am scared that if I don’t start bleeding, it won’t ever stop. Curious if anyone’s ever experienced this and how it played out?
