Not stopping bleedingplease help me

Hi i need urgent advice for my period cycle and whatever is happening with me. It all started from May I had period with only discharge blood lasted for 1 week. Then in June my period started from 11th with discharge blood for 1 week and the next week started bleeding normally not too heavy but not too light. It was like soaking through. Then I had 1 day gap and I got my period again. The same thing first week discharge blood then bleeding. This time was heavy bleeding lasted for 9days and I contacted with NHS on the 9th day because of my heavy period they suggested me to take Tranexamic. I m currently taking the medicine the doctor said to take for 4 days 3 times a day 2 tablets. On the second day of the medicine course there was no heavy bleeding it was like predictable when is going to finish. Apparently I saw that night it was coming to normal. But then on the next morning I m bleeding not too heavy and not too light. I m really worried about this I m so stressed out why I m having this problems. This never occurred to me. Please help me out what should I do next. I have an appointment to GP on 22nd. But why my bleeding is not stopping after the Tranexamic. I heard it stops within 24hr and mine was almost stopping but never stopped bleeding. 

  • Hi,

    I take tranexamic acid for heavy endo periods and it doesn't stop them, it just makes them less heavy, so don't worry if you're still bleeding a little bit even with the tablets. However considering you've been bleeding for so long and it is obviously not your usual cycle, it might be best to ring NHS 111 to get an appointment earlier than the 22nd.

    Hope you get this sorted.
