Hi,
I have read all the posts about heavy periods and tried to stay calm, but it is getting difficult not to panic now! I am so sorry to post on this topic again, but I am just beside myself with worry!
I started my period 9 days ago, but for the first 6 days it has been pretty light. It is usually light for the first day or two and then normal, occasionally on a heavier side for a day or so, but then it starts slowing down. I am on cerazette and both my cycle and period are longer, so a 9 day period is not strange. What is strange is that after light 6 days I suddenly started bleeding heavily and soaking my pads. It felt like it was trying to get started for 6 days and then the floodgates opened! It just starts gushing and there are cloths! At night I filled a pad last two nights, last night I actually filled 2!
Today is the third day and I feel like it will never end! I called out of hours this morning and it didn't really help. They said I need to see my GP which is going to be next week with the holidays! Apparently they don't worry about me getting anaemia until I bleed like this at least a week or two! I sure hope I don't bleed that long!
At times I feel nauseous and lightheaded! And I just want to curl up and hide away until this decides to stop! I am so panicked I will lose too much blood and faint! And so worried about the cloths!
