Hello 

Looking for some advice please.

Had very heavy periods for about 16 months now , no pain at anytime just very heavy periods with large clots lasting around 10 days .

I also get in between bleeding so tend to wear a pad every day just in case as in between bleeding getting almost every few days now and heavier.

Saw GP in April who recommended a CA125 blood test that came back high at 54 , also blood loss caused anemia which came back on the blood test at 7 so given iron tablets for 7 months to help .

A TVS done in May showed a thickness of 24 mm so referred to gynae as urgent case.

Trying not to worry too much but Gynae app not till August and seems a long wait from May to Aug as an urgent referral as this will be around 12 weeks

I do understand Covid backlog is high but has anyone else had any wait like this or any reassurance they could offer , would be much appreciated.

Im 47 years old so not gone through menopause yet though I originally waited to see the Gp as I thought the abnormal bleeding could be the start of the menopause .

Thanks so much for listening
