never ending period

Bleeding day 21 today and next period due on Monday 😫 have done two rounds of tranaxemic acid but kept coming back and now I’ve been given norithisterone. Feel very rough - washed out and stomach cramps. When I walk each step is painful, like being kicked up the bum - can feel womb. Bloated and uncomfortable. Have taken N for two days - what can I expect? When will the bleeding stop do you think? And what abt when the next one is due; I’m nervous about work!!! I feel like a ticking time bomb. In last three weeks I’ve had 6 massive clots and flooding incidents - out of control and very hard to deal with - if they happen when I’m teaching next week i will die :(

I had yesterday off due to flooding but have been going in regardless most of the time - I’m part time so I’ve been lucky that with one exception it’s not happened at work - that won’t be the case next week if I have a period like this one; at the start it’s out of control and i don’t think I can take TA now im on norithisterone!

thanks for support I really appreciate it - just waiting for referrAl to happen and trying to cope in the meantime

hi i went on tranamex acid for the first time recently had a twenty day bleed with flooding and clots, so i totally understand. It finally stopped on the twenty sixth, so that would be Monday. But the last three days were light spotting. The doctor would only allow me to be on it for four days. Hope this help in some way. I totally understand how you feel the flooding is just awful. Sending a big hug. ❤️
