I am a 32 year old female. I have a history of irregular periods and ovarian cysts. My period is never more than 4 or 5 days long. I started my period on May 20, which was a heavy period that would not stop on its own,so was started on some birth control pills june 8...still spotting even with pills. DHEA and WBC s are elevated. Was having abd cramping prior to birth control pills, extreme fatigue/loss of appetite continues. New symptom is pain in both of my knees, difficulty getting from sit to stand, difficulty climbing stairs due to pain. No pain in calves.
