really heavy period ???

[muma3]

i came off the pill about 6 months ago and i had erratic periods. the last 2 have been so heavy it made me sick . im changing sanitry towel every hour and waking in night flooded

i have been getting really bad pmt too and have felt so aggitated and angry and tearful . i have never felt like this before and its getting me down now. i dont want to go out and i am scared all the week before .

any ideas as why it is getting worse ?

I would go and see your GP asap and ask for a referral to a gynaecologist. You cannot and should not have to put up with this problem.

I could give you one possible cause for all this - fibroids. These in particular can cause heavy bleeding.
