Anyone know how long it'll be before it stops? Started taking the contraceptive pill straight away, had the break where I was meant to have my af, then back on pill but still bleeding, meant to have a 6 week check with GP but not going to get there for a while as I'm going for an unrelated op next week and wont be able to get there for a while.

Is it very heavy? When I had a D&C after a miscarriage I only bled for a week or so - recently had a natural miscarriage and bled heavily for 7 weeks - turned out to be a hormonal imbalance. They gave me some tablets and it stopped with 2 days. Might be worth getting it checked out if it is heavy.

its sometimes heavy, sorry if tmi, but less like blood and more like tissue or mucus.

Has it stopped now? I hope so
