Hi. I have pcos and have been on epilim on and off throughout my childhood. Whenever I came off it my periods came back. They stopped when I went on it.
i got a copper IUD as hormonal contraception made me vomit, and I bled heavily for weeks after. Not a proper period just bleeding.
my seizures started again and I found out epilim is dsngerous for women in case they get pregnant anyway, so I went on lamotrigine. Took a while but it stopped my tonic clonic seizures.
ended up having an endometrial biopsy due to lack of period, I was fine, no cancer
I was given meds to try and bring on regular periods but they made me feel sick so I never took them. I know this is bad.
my last bleeding was when I got my coil in 5 years ago. I’m due a new one next month. Getting general anesthetic for it.
i am v overweight (obese) and am seeing a diatician but I’ve just started and only lost half a stone (weight is in 20s stone wise)
recently been on a lot of antibiotics for a tooth infection.
yesterday I was cramping a lot and this morning I noticed I have a period. For the first time since I was 13 bar the coil bleeding when I first got that.
i am a bit concerned why it’s suddenly started though and I passed a huge blood clot while peeing.
I’ve been pregnancy testing regularly as my coil ran out last month as me and my partner don’t use condoms but as I said I never got periods. Tests have always been negative.
could anyone shed some light?
