Bleeding for 12 weeks...

I just wondered really if anyone is in or has been in a similar situation and could offer any help or advice!

i have been bleeding from my vagina for just over 12 weeks. Sometimes it can be very light and other times it can be like a full period in a day!! I am suffering from extreme hair loss, agonising stomach cramps and a contant stomach pain! I’ve also had loose bowels for the same period of time! I aren’t pregnant and I do a test pretty much every week because I’m so paranoid with it!! I have had blood tests, stool samples sent off and come back normal, I’m waiting an ultra sound scan to check for abnormal ovaries and an appointment to see a gynaecologist. 

I am currently taking a pill called cereals which I have been taking for over 2 years and never had a problem before.

Has anyone been in a similar situation and knows what it could be or help and advice!? 

  • Hi Tara

    Welcome to the forum and I'm sorry to hear that you've been struggling with this health concerns for some time now. It sounds as if it's been a very stressful time for you. 

    I can see from your post that your GP has been trying to get to the bottom of the issues for you and it sounds positive that so far everything has come back as normal; although that doesn't obviously resolve things. Do you haev a date for your scan and to see the consultant? Hopefully you won't have to wait too long for those. 

    If you feel that it could possibly be your pill that's causing the issues, then maybe it's worth having a chat with your GP to see if taking a break would be a good idea. 

    I hope that you have a diagnosis soon. 

    Best wishes,
