Heavy and painful periods

[Youngoldmum]

Hi all. I'm 37 and TTC #2 after a 7 year gap. First baby was conceived in first month, into cycle 5 this time and no joy yet. I know I can refer for fertility tests after 6 months and will do, just wondering about others experiences with TTC and heavy/painful periods??
I was on the pill for 10 years before first baby so don't really know when this started but I now have horribly heavy and painful periods, is it always a sign of fertility problems?

Thanks in advance

It doesn't mean fertility problems but it's not much fun for you
Ask your GP for a gynae referral - they can check if there is a reason they are heavy etc

Thanks xx
