continous periods lasting longer than 5 months

yellosaphire20 · Guest

Hi, my name is amanda and i have had my period form more that 5 months basically continous. Out of a month there might be 1 or 2 days where there is no bleeding or maybe very light bleeding. And when i bleed it is very heavy and lots of blood clots, maybe up to 5 or 6 clots a day. I'm very fatigue, tired, sore legs, lower back problems and abdominal pains frequent. I am over weight but was very fit growing up did sports and was very healthy. and about 2 years ago my periods became irregular but not bad like they are now. My husband and I are trying to have our first baby and have never used protection and I have never been on any kind of birth control in my life, and we have been married for over 2 years, what is wrong with me. my insurance doesn't kick in for another month but i need some relief now please help![/b]

HI AMANDA, MY NAME IS AMANDA TOO Smile

OK TO ME THIS SOUNDS LIKE ENDEOMETRIOSIS I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AFTER I HAD MY FIRST CHILD I BLED FOR NEARLY A YEAR STRAIGHT WITH A COUPLE OF DAYS RELEIF PER MONTH. I SUGGEST THAT YOU GO AND SEE YOUR DOCTOR AND EXPLAIN THIS AND THEY MAY ADVISE YOU TO GET A VAGINAL ULTRSOUND WHICH WILL SEE IF THERE IS ANYTHING ABNORMAL IN YOUR CERVIX. ENDOMETRIUM IS THE LINING OF YOUR CERVIX. I HAD TO HAVE A CURETTE TO STOP THE BLEEDING BECAUSE NOT ALL THE AFTER BIRTH CAME OUT IT WAS ONLY LIKE 2MM BY 2MM BIG BUT IT CAN DO THIS. MAYBE YOU MAY HAVE A CLOT OR SOMETHING IN YOUR CERVIX CAUSING THIS PROBLEM BUT DIFFENTLY SEE A DR. LET ME KNOW HOW U GET ON AND ALL THE BEST WITH YOUR FUTURE PLANS FOR A BABY. Very Happy
