Hi,
I'm new here, just registered today. I'm 47 and perimenopausal no doubt. Cycle has been variable in length for past several months. Now, I'm noticing a new weird thing. I start bleeding if I jog. I mean on the last day of my period where I'm just barely spotting, I'll go jogging for 30 minutes, and the next day my period starts all over again for 7-10 days. It's really annoying. I've had 3 periods in six weeks!

What's going on here? I need to exercise to maintain sanity and now I guess I can't jog anymore!

sorry for that last post, i messed up..... first of all welcome, and second yes jogging can start your flow back up but in the long run will help it so i wouldnt stop if i were you.... and at this time of our lives any thing can happen with periods -your norm just goes out the window at this point, with no warning you can be reg. one month and crazy flow the next.... i had periods for 60 days straight.... drs dont make nothing of it,,......
