I received a call back from the gyn yesterday. Lots of good news. There's no cancerous or precancerous stuff going on in my uterine lining. Tests revealed that it was a lack of ovulation causing my menstrual issues. In order to maintain my body so that I don't go long spells without a period then have the bloody explosions, she'll be putting me on Prometrium, a form of progestin that matches the chemical structure of the progestin produced by the human body. I'll be taking that for twelve days every other month. Can't complain there. The bad news is that I don't have an exact reason why I'm not ovulating. I'm not planning on having any more kids, though, so it wouldn't be worth the expense / discomfort of going through whatever tests or medications it would take to find the cause.
On the yicky-sicks front: my digestive system can shut the fuck up and do its job any time now. I'm getting weary of "getting back to normal" only to eat the wrong thing and end up with grouchy intestines, bloating, and gas. That said, gatorade is my friend.
