B12 Injections

Hi can having B12 I njections help with heavy bleeding from your periods.

You'd be better off asking that question on the Pernicious Anemia site, I think. But I don't really think it does.

But, if your bleeding is heavy, it could be due to being hypo, or due to low iron. Have you had your ferritin tested?

Are you diagnosed as having thyroid disease?

Heavy periods are classic sign of being hypothyroid

Also heavy periods tends to cause Anaemia, as for full iron panel to test for low iron and ferritin

Vitamin D and folate need testing too

See you are on B12 injections, are you also supplementing a daily good quality vitamin B complex, one with folate in not folic acid
