My hormones are so low my gyn said I shouldn’t have periods. Yet I do. And the past year it’s become more frequent. I just had one two weeks ago and starting again today. The past few years the first day is pure hell and I lie in bed in misery. Hopefully it’s just a few years to go but damn a hysterectomy would give me 16-20 days of my life back a year. Thanks I needed to vent.
I had an IUD, too. All it gave me was even heavier bleeding. But that was just my case. Yours might be different. Do you have uterine fibroids? These can cause heavy bleedings, too.
