Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Yes, a different schedule on the weekend can definitely cause problems. I'm always amazed at how different I can feel on Friday vs. Saturday. I try to keep my schedule pretty close to a weekday, but I know I am busier and don't eat quite the same on the weekends.

Also, the provera or af could be causing pains. I am on provera right now too! I have taken it several times before. I don't ovulate...and don't have a period often either. How long are you taking the provera? I always take it for 10 days. Then on the 11th day af starts. But everyone is different. I think it can take up to two weeks for af to start for some people. It's not weird at all to not know what af pains feel like. I totally understand. I'm 27 and just starting to learn what that stuff feels like (I'm going through fertility treatments...which makes me ovulate...and feel what a normal women feels like).

I would say don't stress about the pain. Wait and see if it's af. And try to keep your weekend schedule as close to your weekday schedule as possible. And the hypno tapes are great! I've done them once. I'm considering doing it again. I think it really helped.
