Title: Possible Shark Week Spotting 2.5 yrs on T?
Post by: RagingShadow on January 14, 2013, 08:06:23 PM
Ok, so I'm 2.5 yrs on T, haven't had a shark week since pre T. now all of a sudden I've got some pink discharge that resembles pre period spotting. I'm a little concerned that this could potentially develop into a full fledged shark week (which, as a stealth high schooler, would be the pinnacle of bad weeks) My lower abdomen has been a little achy too. I know, call the doc if I'm concerned, but maybe it'll go away and be nothing?
I read something about how sometimes the buildup of endometrial tissue may be shed by spotting after a few years on T, so maybe that's it?
any advice/similar experiences? please?

I am not on T, but I have read that you can get some spotting after being on T for a few years. I've also seen some other posts on here where guys who have been on t for awhile have similiar concerns about spotting. I'd take a note of it and maybe bring it up the next time you go to the gyno or other doctor, unless it gets bad and you go right away.

i had a situation like that about 1.5 years on T. It was awful, i ended up skipping the entire week of schoo. i talked to my endo and she said there was nothing to worry about. Unless you're having abnormal amounts of pain or if it continues for a long  time there's no reason to worry. It sucks but it will be over soon enough.
