Hi suzie-27

Could it be something to do with the form of contraception you've decided to take?

For example the contraceptive injection or implant can cause your menstrual cycle to become a bit irregular for the 1st few months of having it applied but usually after that should tend to settle in your body & balance your ovulation cycle back to normal

xx

I'd make an appt to see your GP to get it checked out. I went on the implant a few years ago and spotted constantly...was no point in me being on contraception!!! It just didn't suit me so had it removed

You are possibly anaemic if bleeding that much, is likely to do with your contraceptive but go see you Dr x

Why are you tolerating this? Make an appnt to see our GP. You're probably feeling drained because you're loosing so much blood. (I wouldn't be surprised if you're also anaemic.)

My little one is 7 month and I have the implant and have bled for about 4 month now almost non stop (apart from a week here and there) I'm also anaemic n on medication for it but the blood loss counteracts my tablets. All doctors keep saying is give it another month to settle. U really need to persist with them as u will end up really poorly x

Not what you're looking for?
