Polyps removed and I’m still bleeding wow

Hi on November 4th 2020. I had my outpatient appointment to have what I was told was 2polyps removed under general anaesthesia I think that's the word anyway all went well when I came out of. Recovery surgeon came to me and said I actually had. Quiet a few polyps not just two as told prior anyway he said don't worry we managed to get them all and not to worry recovery is usually two weeks nurse told me to rest and take painkillers if nessesary  anyway was fine first week or two bleeding got heavy I ended up in A and E as clotting was very large and bleeding heavy then they gave me transexamic acid to take slow bleeding down which it did but now 3months later I'm still bleeding only break I've had is a week so f no bleeding that's the longest and otherwise I'm only off for no less then 4 to 5 days I'm so drained I'm already suffering from anemia so that don't help my situation to make me feel better the go said because I had quiet a few removed that I should expect to feel the way I do and bleed for a while as usually people have alone or two and I had a lot and that my womb has been manipulated so my hormones are all over the place and to expect that and it will get better but I'm just so annoyed that it's taken so long  biopsy came back as no abnormalities found that's good but what should I do I'm just currently waiting and taking these pills and I really don't want to reply on them to be honest any advice will be greatly appreciated

    I'm going through the same thing, all polyps was benign, this is 2nd time of having polyps removed but this time so much different, still heavy bleeding, lots of clots and lots of pain. 
    I go anaemic and feel so low,

    I have to take Ferrous sulfate ,  also Lansoprazole , Mefenamic acid, & Tranexamic acid, but have side affect to one or all of these tablets, so had to stop, I believe the next step will be an hysterectomy, as I have family history of hysterectomy, but back then polyps was not even through about, so really polyps are to our family something new, 

    I know doctors are trying not to do hysterectomy like there used to, but trying to do there best to try and sort out problems before that, good job really as like my family I would have had one in my late 30s. 
    but keep going to doctors explain ( like I should really) but as normal we all believe we should not be bothering the doctors with what we believe to be a normal woman's problem, we all need to be more vocal, say I need help, hopefully that helps alittle as it's alway good to know your not alone, until I read your post, I believe I was only one going through this
