Re: Period still hasn’t stopped-scared!
I haven’t had an internal scan done since my sons birth 5 years ago. I had a regular ultrasound 3 years ago when I was pregnant with my daughter. For whatever reason when I talked to my obgyn shortly thereafter about my heavy periods he didn’t send me for an internal scan. Thus it’s been awhile...I know I should just trust my doctor for not sending me but naturally anxiety gets in the way of that.
My gp is not open tomorrow but I will call my obgyn tomorrow and pray that he’s able to call me back so I can speak with him. Thank you for taking the time to write.

Well, my bleeding stopped by day 10 so that was a relief. I couldn’t get ahold of my obgyn though so will call on Monday to make an appointment with him. Anxiety has reduced but still feeling uneasy about the whole thing.
Re: Period still hasn’t stopped-scared!
GOod news, I was sure it would. I've been there and I know that all it takes is a few hormones to be off-kilter and this type of thing can happen. 'They' usually want to see a pattern, rather than a one-off, which makes it worthy of further investigation. I would be interested to hear an update/the outcome. :)

Thanks Carys. Yes, hard to know at this point if it’s a one off or not. Hopefully I can get an appointment soonish to discuss it with him further.

Not sure how old you are but as women near menopause, going through peri at around 44 you can have longer periods and or shorter, I once had a nine-day one and I am 46, so with all my other symptoms I think I am going through peri.
