Never in my life was I not on time with my period... unless I was pregnant. Now I have it every 3 weeks instead of 4 weeks. Why is it changing? Should I worry? I'm 47

There are two reasons for early period. One is heat or damp heat (profuse, dark-red, thick flow or with clots). The other is qi deficiency (light red, thin menses flow with shortened cycle, lassitude, and dislike of talking). All acupuncturists know this very well. Premenopause or menopause leads to delayed period most cases. Her age is close to menopause, but symptom is different. Go to acupuncture clinic soon.

I am now 11 weeks postpartum. When I was 7 1/2 weeks post partum my bleeding had slowed to almost a hault. Then suddenly two days later I woke up in a puddle of blood. The bleeding was so bad that I had to wear 2-3 pads, at the same time, and change them every 1/2 hour. My ob/gyn did not seem to think it was a big deal and prescribed me a pill to take, for 10 days, to stop the bleeding. All it did was slow the bleeding down. At 9 1/2 weeks the bleeding finally stopped...for 3 days. When it started back it was brown and jelly-like. I saw my ob/gyn who prescribed me birth control pills in order to regulate my cycles. A little history: I will be 39 years old in July. I have been pregnant 12 times (8 misscariages). I have 3 boys (18, 13, and 4) and now a little girl (born last March). With my daughter I had my tubes tied. All of my babies were c-sections. Does anybody have a clue as to what is going on with my bleeding? Thank you for your time.

Get lotus and make juice and drink. 12 oz each time twice a day. Bleeding will stop within 3 days. In the mean time, find the acupuncture clinic and get treatment.
