Hi Raee17,

Sorry to hear you're going through this. Has the GP prescribed you any medication to try and stop the bleeding? I've had something similar, prolonged bleeding (at one point I bled for 8 weeks straight with just 3 random days where I didn't bleed), scan showed ovarian cyst and possible uterine polyp. My GP put me on Tranexamic acid which stopped the bleeding. She also referred me to Gynae precisely because I was bleeding, so I can't see why they can't refer you to Gynae even if you are still bleeding. Maybe try a different GP at your surgery as some are better than others. Good luck getting sorted

My GP prescribed tranexamic acid, which I started taking but it made it made my period come heavier within 2 days of taking it, which I think it means its not working. They have also said I can go on the combined pill which I'm considering taking if it stops the bleeding. They said they will refer me to gynaecologist after I have had another ultrasound but I'm still waiting for an appointment to get an ultrasound. I have seen three different doctors that have told me the same thing. 

It must be so stressful for you, hopefully they can get the bleeding stopped. My bleeding also got heavier the day after I started the tranexamic acid and was really heavy for 3 days, but gradually decreased and stopped 10 days after starting the tranexamic acid. At times it took 2 weeks for the tranexamic acid to stop the bleeding, but my GP didn't seem concerned and was happy for me to carry on taking it.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Thank you and your reply has relived some stress for me. I have continued taking the tranexamic acid so hopefully it will stop soon and I'm sorry to hear a similar thing is happening to you. It can be stressful and tiring. I hope you get everything sorted soon and wverythig goes well with treatment. 

Thanks Raee17, I hope things go well for you too and you get some answers x
