I'm 41, my period has lasted 26 days with clots, backpain, heaviness in pelvis, dizziness.
I went to emergency on Monday because I got scared. They did bloodwork, ultrasound and a pelvic
exam (internal). Gave meds to stop the bleeding. My doc has scheduled a D & C. I did have a pap test
done this past February and it came back fine. But I am still scared, I'm so scared that it could be cervical
cancer...
I'm hoping it could be perimenopause ....I have also experienced nightsweats for the past 6 months or so.
Anyone have the same symptoms? Anyone experience a D & C %-)
Any thoughts????

I went through the same thing. I had a period for 23 days, heavy some days with clots and very light on other days. I went to my gyne and was told to monitor my cycle for 3 months to see if would regulate on its own because I skipped a month. I amd experiencing hot flashes, some heart palpatations and night sweats. My doctor did not find any uterine fibroids or anything wrong during my exam. You could be going through perimenopause.

Thank you so much for responding to my post. Our symptoms sound the same. I'm actually hoping
that it is perimenopause. Waiting for the D and C is torturing. It is on my mind constantly. This very
long period has never happened before, although the clots have been occuring for the past few months during
my period.

That was my fear that I would have to have a D & C done but my doctor did not suggest that. I am hoping to go through this perimenopause naturally because I do not want to take HRT due to the numerous side effects. I started taking an iron supplement so that I would not become anemic. You may want to try that because that may help with the dizziness due to you possibly having a low iron caused by the heavy bleeding.
