May also be related to increasing age. Anti coags will not help problem so find a GP good with ladies' problems. Needs immediate investigation to find cause and put right. Don't be fobbed off; you cannot live like this.
CSI for sure here. It was a horrible 4 months pre and post ablation but am thankfully off it now. Was a desperate time for me for sure. Luckily I knew there was an end in sight but had I continued on it or if I have to go on anti coag again I will get endometrial ablation. Are you on it to have an ablation or longer?
I'm on it for life unfortunately, I am now awaiting a second ablation but have been told I will at least stay on anticoagulant since I had a clot in heart previously.
I wish it was age related, my body may feel it's capable of more children there's no way my mind is π Especially being a nanny now.
Doctors appointment waste of time, seriously I told him that for 2/3 days out of 5 it's uncontrollable, so HE asks well how often do you need to change, erm excuse me I just told you it's uncontrollable I'm not a child and you're not a woman, so he suggested the contraceptive injection that will cause weight gain, so that's a no, he then suggested a tablet to take 3 days before due to then stop taking after a week which then causing a huge period when stopped, well obviously all that's going to do is shift the cycle,twit?
I know I'm late to the party but YES! Periods are horrible on a blood thinner. Been taking eliquis since being dx with afib back in July- 4 months ago. I bleed like a stuck pig! Cramps are worse and I hate it! Had ablation almost 3 months ago and should be getting off blood thinner soon if heart checks out ok. I had some structural changes noted when I was dx no clot though.
