I am early thirties (TTC#1) and always have had ?light? periods until I had a coil fitted which did increase the flow and cramping I experienced.
The coil (not the one with added hormones) was removed in December, periods have reverted to being light flow but I?m now only getting the following and I?m wondering if it?s normal or if it could indicate some kind of hormonal problem?
Day 1 & 2 dark brown light flow
Next 36ish hours medium flow ?fresh red?
Following 36 ? 48 hours dark brown light flow.
I had the coil fitted as I?m unable to take the combined pill due to previous migraines and I was on the progesterone only pill for 6 months but this resulted in me bleeding for a week every other week, which is why I'm thinking my hormones might be a bit screwed.
I was thinking about booking an appointment with the doctors but suppose I want to see if other people think this is normal or not before I do or will they tell me to wait till we?ve been trying for 12 months? I probably shouldn't even be worrying about this but TTC is making me slightly obsessive about things and everyone else I know just seems to moan about having really heavy periods.
