Need some advise please

I had some spotting so visited the dr yesterday who has arranged a scan for me on Friday however it had got heavier with small clots ! I rang the dr as I’m concerned being on Rivaroxaban and he said just to carry on with them until I have the scan Does anyone else think is strange ?

Hi Jan, I see you had a similar problem a year ago. What did you do then and were you on Rivaroxaban? Vaginal bleeding can also be a sign of a womb infection, which can be cleared easily with antibiotics. Had it once in the days when I was a young mum. Is the blood bright red or brownish?

If the bleeding becomes serious, go straight to A & E, but otherwise the scan on Friday will be the first step to identifying the problem.

Hi, according to your description, you may have irregular menstruation which is caused by unhealthy lifestyle or diseases in the genital system. It is suggested go to the gynecological department of the regular hospital for examination as soon as possible. Ultrasound can be examined to see the condition of uterus and ovary, if it is not caused by organic lesions, and then you can take some hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs such as Fuyan Pills, it consists of natural herbs which can be used to treat the diseases in the genital system in women and has no side effcts. At last, I hope you can recover soon.
