Hi Helen,

I have also gone without a period for a little over a year.  This past month while at work I felt a very sharp pain in my lower right ab - went to bathroom and saw spotting - called doctor to see later in day, however spot turned into a full blown period of 3 days - did go to doctor, had pelvic, pap, and transvaginal, said everything looked ok - did mention that sometimes endometrial lining can be thick and that's what they look at - suggested possibly a biopsy - we decided to wait to see what happened the next month -sure enough, 23 days later, sharp pain in opp. lower ab, and period.  It has continued now for 5 days - heavy the first 3 and occasional spotting - I'm set up to have biopsy today - I have been concerned as well - this time around I feel more cramping, squeezing just above the pelvic area and more sharp pains, but this time nausea on and off - of course I pray it is nothing serious, I'll be turning 50 this year.  It is comforting though to see these other posts - sometime I feel like I'm running to the doctor for everything -
