Nosebleeds all the time

[Piggywaspushed]

Does anyone else suffer from very frequent nosebleeds?

I feel like I am being fobbed off a bit by my GP but I am not sure what more they could or should do.

For the last year or so I have started getting nosebleeds and these are ramping up. They are always at night , generally in the wee small hours. As an outline of what I mean , I have had 12 nosebleeds in the last 4 weeks. They are not all that long lasting but they drip out of my nose a fair amount and run down my throat. They are often preceded by a migraine or followed by one - but not always.

GPs don't seem to think it's HRT or hormonal but they look a bit nonplussed if I ask this.

BP is generally fine but higher in mornings and can spike if I am ill. GPs don't think it's an issue.

I was prescribed cream as if it is a short term condition but it isn't. Unsurprisingly that didn't work.

I didn't have nosebleeds as a child.

FBC is on low side so currently on iron tablets. Not surprising really!

Any similar experiences? It's really beginning to get me down.

Had mine caurtirised.. smelt like vinger.. no more nose bleeds.

At least 4 times... perk of my job.

Well, yes , you'd think I'd be that sensible but alas no.

I need to get up anyway as it runs down my throat if I don't!

@Piggywaspushed Hello. I'm experiencing similar. Did you ever get to the bottom of this/find a solution?

Hi there, sadly not really. The only 'solution' is to keep up the HRT and even then I have some nosebleeds. So, even though I was dismissed, it is clearly hormonal.

@Piggywaspushed I'm not on HRT. Currently only have mirena. I suspect I'm a bit peri but GPs dismissing becayse of my age. Did you ever see an ENT?

Yes, he was extraordinarily uninterested and dismissive !
