I hurt. :(

Okay, so my uterus is in an unhappy place, it seems, and I was wondering if anyone had experienced this. As a background, I just started atkins, and in the beginning you really can't eat anything but meat, eggs, cheese, and some veggies. No fruit. No drinks but water. No bread. No nothing. I take a daily vitamin supplement, though. I thought that might have some impact on my goings on down there.

Anyway, I'm not due for another 6 or 7 days with my period. Yesterday, it just hurt. It wasn't really cramping. It felt like that hot "on fire" sensation you feel when you're actually on your period. There was a little brownish discharge and such, but then it went away. It just feels like all of January, I've been sore in my uterus, and occasionally bleeding... well, more like browning. It's so bizarre. Also, the entrance to my cervix feels a wee sore, like I'm about to start my period or something.

Is there something wrong with me? Could it be the rapid diet change? Help!

Well, honestly, I wouldn't even call it spotting. I just noticed that my discharge wasn't totally white. It doesn't feel like a bowels thing, though. It feels very much like uterine pains.

I have IBS and my bowel pains often feel like menstrual pains... but that wasn't my point. Just make sure you get enough fibre or you'll be regretting it in a few days.

I hope you feel better soon! Good luck.
