From the time I became a woman, I had always experienced irregular menstrual cycles. It would show up for one month and cease for about three months. Sometimes, it would last for just one day. I saw a doctor and he told me that the experience would normalize as I grew older.
In the year I was to get married, I did not menstruate for five months at a stretch. This was not the usual irregular periods that I was used to, so I began to worry again. I was told that it could be as a result of anxiety or stress, since I was planning my wedding. This again gave me a short-lived feeling of rest.
Finally, I got married, but four months into my marriage, I had not menstruated and it raised a lot of thought bombs and pressure in the home. I got very worried about the possible cause and consequence of this to my marriage. However, my husband remained calm, loving and understanding. By the tenth month of that year, I decided to see a gynecologist and I trusted God that the medical profession would help me. The physical and hormonal tests I ran showed that I was okay. The doctor, after a long moment of pondering, decided that I should have an x-ray. It was at this point that I knew I had to see a higher authority.
I booked an appointment to see Pastor Nkechi Ene. In our meeting, she asked me, “What do you want?” I replied, “Well, to be like every other normal woman.” She gave me Scriptures to back up my faith and then she prayed a simple prayer, that my menstrual cycle would be twenty-eight days and regular.
One week to the date of the x-ray, a few days after I saw Pastor Nkechi Ene, my menstrual cycle resumed and it has been beautiful ever since.
Praise the Lord!
