I care on my period yesterday and it wasn’t even bad but this morning I woke up thinking something wasn’t right I got out of bed and it was like someone had turned a tap on it was running down my legs and it was all over my lower half it looked like a murder scene is this something I should go to the doctor with as it’s still heavy ?

Hello Honorac, really sorry to hear you are having a tough time this month. The advice I’ve been given by the NHS is that you should seek advice if you have to change a sanitary pad once an hour or more frequently. It sounds like it might be worth you contacting your GP?

Hope that helps and hope you are feeling better soon, x X x

Hi, that sounds awful. How is it now? Did you go to the doctors?

Hope you're okay x

Hope you are OK. Lots of hugs.

I only started getting really heavy periods after my cyst was removed. All very mysterious.

Sorry to jump in but I'm the same... periods are awful since my op 😕 is this normal do u think ?

[Katy_in_the_house in reply to Stresshead24]

No idea! I did tell my consultant as I saw him 3 months after my op so had enough 'evidence'. But I think they don't like to give opinions unless they are really certain about what it could be. So he just didn't really respond. My periods are now really regular....like to the day...but much heavier. Never been this regular or heavy before.

I think you should speak to a GP to get this checked over. Also if you’re losing so much blood you risk being anaemic. I have low iron caused by heavy periods. I’m awaiting my second laparoscopy- I think my endo has grown back. Good luck xoxo
