I just wanted to warn that this is a sensitive post, as it is about abortion.
I had an abortion 8 weeks ago. My first period last month was VERY heavy, I was gushing everytime I stood up for 2 days which made me feel very tired and sick, it has also left me quite anxious about this month. I also had alot of pain. I have had heavy periods and pain in the past, not quite as heavy as that.
Has anyone here had a termination? and if so did your periods return to normal and become less heavy? My GP seems to think they will improve in a couple of months.
I am considering going on the pill. My GP tried to put me on it last summer as I have suspected endometreosis. Every month I bled heavy for the first 2 days and was in agony, I would have to take to my bed, no uni/work. My GP said that wasn't fair on me and that I couldn't take to my bed every month, I was the same around ovulation, lots of pain.
Would the pill cause a lighter bleed and less pain? My GP suggested loestrin 20 last year.
