i am a woman, and i AM having some weirdness in my menstrul cycle, but i'm pretty sure i'm not menopausal because i'm 23. :)
i went to the gyno like, last week though and she said i have amenorrhea...i haven't had my period in 3 months and there's no apparent reason for it.woo i love being screwed up in so many areas of my life. at least im consistent.
