Been on period for 6 Weeks

Hi there everyone. 

I'm a little concerned. I'm a 28 year old female. I had my gallbladder out earlier this year. I've really struggled with my periods the past 2 months. I've had a couple of weeks where I was very light, with brown/spotting/pink discharge. However for almost 3 weeks I passed huge clots, for 1 week I was just heavy bleeding and since the 2nd of December I've been passing clots again. I do intermittently get a sharp stabbing pain in the left hand side of my groin at the top of my leg. I've always been irregular with my periods, but nothing like this. I've been on tablets to help and nothing does. I have a transvaginal scan tomorrow. I'm just a little worried at the moment. 

  • Welcome to the forum Val although I'm sorry about the symptoms you've been experiencing. 

    I noticed you had your transvaginal scan the other day so I just wanted to check in and see how you got on.

    I do hope it went o.k but if you have any questions do give our cancer nurses a call. They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Kind regards,
