Am really freaking out here as have health anxiety anyway

Had the Copper coil put in last August and my periods did get slightly heavier and more painful as expected but were still only 5-7 days long

Last 3 months they've got really weird

In May I spotted for 3 days then had heavy bleed like normal for 4 days then another 3 days of spotting so about 10 days

I was in a bit of pain as well so I went to the family planning clinic as my gp was worried my coil had moved. But it looked fine and the dr there checked my cervix and that was ok

Then last month (June) was similar but about 7 or 8 days

Then This month had 4 days light spotting 3 days quite heavy, thought I'd finished yesterday then today I've got bright red bleeding again (but quite light) so I'm on day 8 and really worried

Sorry for tmi btw. Has anyone else had this? Just really worried in case something is wrong. I'm 37 btw so hopefully not anywhere near menopause

Help!!!
