I had my son almost 6 months ago, after 3 months I started bleeding, didn’t think nothing of it, I stop breast feeding at almost 2 months, so I wasn’t sure why my period was so late, anyway... after I started bleeding I thought oh wow great 1st period after about a year, then I noticed every 10 min I would go to the bathroom and gushed of blood would just come out, that turned Into ever 5 min, after a day and 100 research later I see women who just had a baby say that they bleeding were also heavy, changing their pads every hour or 2, then I realized that this wasn’t normal bc I am bleeding heavy all over the place soaking really heavy pads every 5 min, the next day I had to call my sons aunt bc his dad was out of town for work, she came and I noticed I’m started to get dizzy, tired and my heart was beating really fast, by this time I knew I lost or loosing plenty of blood, drove myself to the ER bc I called my OB and she said “not normal, come to ER”
My OB hospital is 10min away from me local, from my house to there my pad was soaked, and I had to double up and put paper towels in between (that’s how bad I was bleeding) got to ER soon as the DR checked my Vigina and opened me up blood gushed all over the floor, he said not normal at all you’re bleeding hysterically we are calling your OB.
While I was in the ER I started to feel really dizzy n that’s when they started doing test, blood test and U/S, my blood came back normal (it did went down the next day bc I was still loosing blood day 3 of bleeding) they gave me 3 huge bag of estrogen through my IV, I was admitting and had to stay 24 hours, estrogen supposed to stop or calm the bleeding down by tricking your body. (Also I was hemorrhaging bad as well on top of the bleeding)
I was still bleeding but it calm down over night, before I left the hospital they took another blood test and my blood count was low (from bleeding a lot) I was taking pain meds, tytulla BC to stop the bleeding and iron pills, that they as august 13, 2017.
Went back to my OB 6 weeks later and I was still bleeding not much at all, but it never stopped either, well it did for maybe 2 days. Then pinkish again. She then said that I have a small cyst they found and want to monitor it and come back another 6 weeks and get blood test a week before my app.
I go for another check up next week oct 16,2017, I just started bleeding like crazy again 7 days ago, not as much like soaking my pads every 10 to 5 min, but this is more like my period, I say I’m changing my pads ever 3 to 4 hours and I’m starting to see clots again. I have been bleeding for 2 months straight now and idk what it is, definitely not normal and after I see my OB I’m gonna try and seek different opinion just Incase. Anyone find out anything let me know. Again I just had a baby and I’m sure it has a lot to do with it.

Omgosh I feel ur pain.. last year 2016 I have been bleeding for 8 months then new years 2017 broke my leg an my period stopped an just recently 2 weeks ago in September it started up heavy dark an light non stop. Past 4-5 yrs I have been through alot. The birth control pills an some other strong pills which caused me to vomit an nausea. So they suggested a mirena that got pushed out asap. My bloods was too much. I've had a pelvic ultra sound scan done and the doctor found out that I have poly cystic ovaries meaning I have little tiny cysts thousands all over both my ovaries.. due to my fat cells.. he said the only way to get rid of it is to lose weight. Eat healthy.
