    This sounds like one of the situations where you really need a doctor.
    Organic Parsley tea just ain't gonna fix this combination.
    I second the idea of endocrinologist.
    Frustrating but don't give up. Someone will eventually rise to the challenge. If I was a Dr I would sure like to meet someone like you; a complex case on the one hand , and on the other a healthy active lifestyle and a real strong wish to be WELL. Instead of a common ailment accompanied by a passive attitude to treatment and health/wellness in general.
    Thinking of ya...

    All you need is love...la-dee-da-dee-da...all you need is love!

    Carla..I had a similiar problem but not to your extent. 2 years ago, when I started biking seriously, no matter where I was during my cycle, if I exerted or heavy hill climbing, I would cramp horrible and start bleeding. Talked to my Gyn who said,,,age related (38) and sometimes that happens... and passed it all of type of thing. Over the winter, things were normal sceduled, no bleeding or cramping with indoor workouts. When biking rolled around in the spring, same thing started all over again. Saw a new Gyn who suggested an transvag ultrasound. Then had a D&C done, she said the inside of my uterus was like a rolling terrain, and described that blood had pooled in the valleys and would "break off" so to speak with exertion. WELL, what ever, it worked for me.. Have you tried birth control pills just for regulation, like a low dose? Hope you make out okay..

    Shelly, interesting. I was thinking endometriosis and fixing it with a D&C
    they used to do that a lot... maybe that's all she needs; but I'm pretty clueless. SOunds like 7 doctors are clueless too.

    I vote for a new doctor.
