You don't need to make a special appt. to tell your Dr. If in fact your periods have really stopped for good, you need to CELEBRATE!!! Go buy a bottle of champagne, ask a girlfriend over and have a party! However, I wouldn't be so quick to think that after 33 days it's all over and done. I had regular, clockwork periods for years and then suddenly nothing for 3 1/2 months. Then WHAMMO, mid June (right before our anniversary trip) I got one. Again, in July I got another one a week "early" and have been cramping and spotting off and on since. Joy of joys!!! I think a lot of this is brought on by stress as it tends to ramp up your estrogen levels but it's still the pits. I was rather enjoying the no period life and thought I might be homefree. Alas, it was not meant to be. I hope you are right about yours but don't be too confident. I wouldn't throw out my tampons and pads quite yet! Good luck!
hugs,

Dear 'mollymo.
God is great but have a feeling He would advise you to see a Gyno. for Hormonal and Thyroid levals.
Then when you know where you stand together you can make some decisions that will stop your '''snap dragon' reflex and crying.
Please do not worry about this.
I suspect you are Peri-Menopausal but am nor Doctor!
So get that appointment and stop blowing fire on everyone!
Warm Wishes
And Best of Luck

I went for 6 months without a period last year. Then I started again and was back to regular every 28 days for the past year. I am now 2 months period free. I still carry emergency pads/tampons wherever I go. Boy life is exciting isn't it??

Oh please dont come back, first time in my life without the dreaded things. I just seen an advert on tv appealing for money for a dog charity and this voice said " look at poor arny, he was abandoned by his owners in the dark, so is to afraid to go out in the dark now", and i immedietly burst into tears lol. Hy husbands looking at me like i am deranged and turned the tv off.
Anyway best advice i got on here was to get the girls round and a bottle of champagne, so come on girls you are all welcome.

I wouldn't be so quick to celebrate the end of your periods if it's only been 33 days....most likely you will have more...and possibly many more....
And,from the emotional state you're in right now,it sounds like you may be getting ready to start one at any moment...
hate to rain on your parade,it's just that alot of us have been there/done that....

well it is possible that you could be preggo if you're not practicing safe sex....
I'm 44 and have skipped periods and had many late ones so unless there's a chance you could be pregnant,it's probably just peri.

As many of you already know, I went 8 months without a period and then all of a sudden had another full period that lasted nearly 2 weeks. Last year I went 4 months without one and then began them all over again. That is just part of the peri adventure. You periods become so erratic and you will swear you are completely done and then all of a sudden..... it is back!
Please, please, no more!!!! But unless I have a hysterectomy I guess I have no control over this.
Hang in there and learn all you can especially here on Power Surge.

Hi
33 days is such a short time to wonder if they have disappeared, mine sometimes go two or three months and I am hoping and praying that its the end and then bam my period arrives and stays with me for up to two weeks and then I go back to every month. At present I am on a two monther with no sign, although getting all the symptoms and have done for the last four weeks.
I know what the temper thing feels like too and you sort of know you are doing it at the time, but dont be able to seem to lift yourself out of it.
If 33 days is a long time for you, then check that you are not pregnant, then that is one less thing you have to worry about.
I hope things gets better for you soon hun, stick in there!

Yes Angie very hard to control. It's weird because i have always been a yes sir no sir kind of person, but now i tell people what I think which is put of character. Friday night I told my freinds what i think of them, then yesterday snapped my freinds head off , thankfully they are still my freinds( for now.) Something boils up and you can't stop it.
Also this tiredness thing its not tiredness its exhaustion, i am sleeping 9-10 hours and still feel tired all day.

Mollymo,
Just wanted to let you know that I am in the same place you are...I am now 39 days since my last period! I haven't been that late in years, in fact my periods have been closer together during my wonderful perimenopausal years. So I am also keeping my fingers crossed that this may be it. However, I stop myself every day to not go and buy a pregnancy test!

Stll teary and angry, and to top the icing on the cake total paranoia. I went through hubbys history on his pc yesterday, been doing it for a while now and discovered he had been visiting escorts, so maybe the paranoia paid off. Now i am on the lowest ebb of my life. I feel like someone kicked the stuffing out of me. Great timing just as i thought life couldn't get any worse. My eyes are puffy and burning from crying so much. Think i need something from teh Doctor to tide me over.

Oh Molly,
I am so sorry for your pain. Let's just say I've been there very recently and the pain is still acute. The sense of betrayal is HUGE. Have you confronted him with what you've found? Is there a way to print out this history? If so, I would. Now see, my paranoid brain is starting to kick in again. Actually right now maybe you should take a deep breath and just get ahold of yourself and NOT say anything to him. Just concentrate on getting through the next day or so. Let him think your tears are peri related. Get mad, it'll help with the pain but don't make any big decisions while you are mad, they usually aren't the best ones we make. But the anger will help you to feel stronger. Molly, I want you to know that you are not alone. If you read through these boards you will find many of us have had similar things happen in our lives. Each of the ladies on PS will give you valuable insight as to what happened to them and what they did with it. Some will give hugs and support and some will give advice and many will give both. Take it all in and do what you feel is best for you. Tell you what, maybe you should repost this as a new thread. That way you will get the support you need. PS sisters are the best and will flock to your side. Hang in there Molly, you will be alright, really you will. In the meantime, I think you are right to ask your Dr. for something to help you sleep and stay calm. I think maybe some Ativan or Xanax would be a good idea. My prayers are with you, Honey.

Molly,
You must have a reason to suspect if you have been searching his history on a regular basis? I don't know exactly what you found in the history( in depth activity on a particular website or just something that looks shallow, like it popped up out of the blue if you know what I mean) ....anyway I have to say before we hang him out to dry we need to remember that computers are funny things. The nieghbor kids (7 and 4ish) was on the comp. recently and his mother said that all of a sudden this picture of a woman's you know what popped up with a website, the boy is holloring "MOM what is this" ......my point being it is now on the history and if his mother hadn't seen it it would look like he had pulled it up. This happens enough to where as I click on websites all I can do is hope that what the website says it is is what it is. Say I am looking for a particular item(innocent I might add)I have clicked on websites in the past that should have been what I was looking for and when they came up lets just say it gives you quite a shock. That happened to me once while looking for Dicks sporting goods, seriously had the website that said dickssportinggoods, I click it and whoala i have seen more than i need too, I looked up images of cone flowers for a drawing study I was doing on the flower and got an image that had nothing to do with flowers I will tell you that....if my husband had looked at my history this would have showed up. Remember pop up ads also go into your history....... A rational thought for me would be if he was really doing something wrong why would he be so careless as to not delete it since it is so easy to get rid of your history on the comp.. I would say if you approach him about this which I think you should, don't accused right off as he will take the defensive quickly...if you can stay in emotional control it will make it harder for him and he won't be able to use the you are just irrational and paranoid right now I can't talk to you like this.
Good luck with this and I hope for you that it was nothing....HUGS Mikki

I am so sorry for you Molly....that is hard enough to deal with wthout anything else going on. It sounds like you have a good plan already in place, good for you for being strong and brave enough to take that step. No thought to what he could bring home to you in the way of disease.....now I can officially say what a horses bleep, bleepity bleep.

Oh Molly, I am so sorry. This is so painful for you, I know. I hope you will now take a good cleansing breath and get to the Dr. today in one piece. I don't mean to scare you or make this harder for you but you must do something to protect your health. Make sure your Dr. orders lab tests to be done to make sure your husband has not passed something on to you. Your Dr. can take cultures right there in his office for Chlamydia and Gonarhea. You need to get blood tests for HIV, Herpes Simplex Virus, Syphillus, Hepatitis. I had to do this myself just a couple of months ago and I found it very difficult to say the least but it must be done. these tests should be repeated in 3 to 6 mos. to make sure. Don't worry, no one will judge you, it is not your fault. The saving grace in all of this (if there is one) is that if he's using a "reputable" escort service (I know, a contridiction) your chances of catching something are smaller. They tend to be very protective of themselves from a health standpoint so the odds of your husband catching something from them is smaller than if he was out in the public arena, so to speak. I'm so, so sorry Molly. My heart breaks for you and I wish I could just reach out and give you the hug you need right now. Please keep coming here for support. We are here for you!
Warmest hugs to you, Honey.
