Every time I stand blood fills the pad and will often leak down my legs!! Help anyone

What sort of pads do you use? Maybe switch to another brand to see if that helps or not.

Please call 111 or your gp. Especially as this seems to be new to you, you need to get it checked out.

I’m waiting for a hysterectomy but so much older than you I’m 55 and suffered since I was 30 due to numerous fibroids and still really suffering and now I have to have to have an abdominal hysterectomy as fibroids are so large I feel really let down over the years had such a big blood loss 2 weeks ago my hubby found me passed out in the bedroom I wish more than anything they made me have one when I was young it’s took my life over I cancel going out I only wear black when I go out as I have have had so many accidents and I try and be so careful !!!!! I am taking 30mg of Northisterone every day and out of the blue started bleeding again yesterday so have to take Transexamic acid to slow it !!!! I really feel for you I hope they sort you really soon I can’t leave the house when I’m bad I used to wear 3 pads one high at the front one high at the back and one in the middle good luck hope you soon feel much better

Oh crikey that’s so not good I do really feel for you when I went in an ambulance theybasked me if I could fill a cup with blood !!! I could have filled a washing up bowl lol with clots as big as the Palm of my hand They put me on a drip of Transexamic acid for 2 hours I had a panic when I started bleeding yesterday I think people really underestimate how awful it is !!!! I just want to never bleed again I hope they don’t send you home still bleeding I take 17 tablets a day at the minute 12 to stop bleeding and huge amount of iron tablets good luck I really hope you get sorted because of Covid could be months before I get my hysterectomy 😢
