How long since your last miscarriage? if recent, any chance of inection, I had inection after one of my births and it caused very heavy bleeding.

Sorry you are having this trouble, it must be horrible.

I would definitely go and see the GP if I were you.

inection = infection. sorry!

Is this a new thing or have your periods always been this heavy. It sounds awful, and I think you should get to the doc and stamp your feet until they help. I hope it gets sorted very soon

One common cause of post-coital bleeding is cervical polyps: they can also cause heavy periods and mid-cycle bleeding. They are almost invariably benign and are painless to remove. Big ones can interfere with fertility too (by obstructing cervical canal).

You do need to see your GP: ask if it could be polyps or if there are other possibilities. It might be a good idea to request a gynae referral for an overall checkup.
