My periods have always been okay. Never hurt, bled for 5 days usually until I developed pcos. Period then were wobbly but I was never in pain and it was for 3/5 days. Just not every month
I had ds 10 weeks ago and 2 days ago I came on since the birth.
It's horrific. I'm doubled over, I'm dizzy with it and paracetamol doesn't help me at all.
I wear a super heavy tampon, a pad, two pairs of kickers and I keep bleeding through it when I'm wearing it all at the same time. I've just woke up to find myself feeling soaked and sore and the amount of blood in my bed. I Could cry. I'm getting a doctors appointment first thing today but someone please hold my hand and tell me this can be normal

Charlyn that is absolutely shocking! I have also had a ruptured ectopic, it was 4 hours between rupture to emergency surgery and I was very, very unwell. You have been so lucky that the bleeding wasn't more severe and honestly you have had such a close call. That hospital was utterly appalling. I thought you were going to say ectopic even before I finished reading your post so it's inexcusable they didn't rule that out.

How are you today, Op?

I can't much comment on the heavy bleeding. Friend with PCOS says she gets few periods & they are always very heavy.

Were you referred to GP to get strong painkillers in case next time is so painful? Mine went from no pain to mild pain to severe overwhelming pain -- sudden change each time. To me sudden change is normal thing that just happens to some. You can get medical treatment to help with the pain.
