Title: Periods That Try To Start But Can't- Just Yellow/Brown Stain and PMT
Post by: Machair on November 20, 2014, 12:09:38 PM

Anyone share my experience of having PMT for what seems like an eternity, and having the slightest yellow/brown staining that never progresses to a period. It's like it wants to start but there is not enough hormone to press the on button! Every day I think I will start but just the faintest hint and more PMT.

I had this last year a lot so it isn't new, but I wonder does anyone start periods very gradually like this proceeded by yellow or brown staining for days first?

Yep! Me too Machair. I think I've asked advice on this before and you've always been helpful.

It can start this way sometimes two weeks before a proper flow, sometimes two days. I got it after my last period had finished too which was a new one on me. Every tiny little difference puts my anxiety through the roof these days xx
