Irregular Periods, Pregnancy Tests Say Negative. What Else Could It Be?

Hi, I have been feeling pressure in my top right side of my stomach. The last 3 or 4 months my period has been very wierd. Either very heavy for a day or so or extremely light for around 4 or 5 day. I've had two kids and my tubes tied a year and a half ago. I took two tests that both said negative but i'm still feeling movement/pressure pushing feeling. I've also had very clear/watery discharge. Could I still be pregnant or is it something else?

Hello,

As your both tubes are tied, then possibility of being pregnant is almost nil. There are several reasons of irregular period. These includes ovarian cyst, pelvic infection, hormonal imbalance, stress/ mental upset, uterine fibroid/ polyp, over wt/ rapid loss, irregular diet pattern, thyroid disturbance etc.

Here, you need to consult with gynecologist for relevant investigations after clinical examination like pelvic USG scan, hormone assay, thyroid profile, endometrial biopsy following D & C, blood sugar & prolactin level etc. Proper treatment depends on etiology.

Take healthy diet with iron supplements, control body wt, maintain genital hygiene. All the best.
