I've been on my period HEAVY, and non-stop for going on 7-8 months now. I've had a D&C procedure, and am now on low estrogen birth control (one week in) to attempt to stop it. My gyno told me he doesn't know what's wrong w/me. All the bloodwork, MRIs, tests, etc. come back fine. At this point I'm ready to do whatever to stop the bleeding. The first thing people ask me is if I'm depressed. NO...I'm fine with life, but THIS is depressing. What am I supposed to do?
I have fibroids, and underwent a UFE procedure 3 years ago. It didn't eliminate the fibroids, but it did reduce the size. I was hesitant to try birth control b/c of fibroids, but I need alternatives.
I don't have children, and don't care to have them given my menstrual complications. Would be just fine permanently removing the ability. This is no way to live. I can't even function normally with a period this heavy. I'm always bleeding all the time. This is crazy.
