OK here we go.. I'm new here so HI to everyone.
8 months ago I had an emergency C-section, there after I bled for 3 months straight with an occasional day or two spare in between where I would think it had finally stopped. During this time I had no pain what so ever. I had an ultrasound and it was all normal so the doctor put it down to a hormonal thing and put me onto the pill to try and regulate my periods again.
that was going well for a while then I skipped a pill by accident and started bleeding whilst still taking the pill and me thinking like before I had my daughter that if I kept taking the pill it'd go away and 2 weeks later I was still bleeding so had to stop the pill to let my period go where I experienced normal period pains, started the pill again a week later and everything seemed fine.
2 months later I was getting into the shower (still on and taking the pill) to find a discolouration in my underwear, so putting on a panty liner I was bleeding old blood (dark brown) which then by the next day had progressed to fresh blood so stopping the pill again to have my period I experienced no pain except for 1 day which was slight subtle sharp pains and one week later after stopping the pill my period went away and I thought I'm going to see what happens without taking the pill (because quite frankly I don't see why I should HAVE to be on the pill if I choose not to be) and 2 days later I started bleeding again, had another ultrasound which was 'normal' again and I've been spotting ever since which has been just over a week now, but I've still been getting on and off sharp pains and what feels to be pressure when I sit mainly around the c-section scar. The DR is still claiming it's hormonal but you'd think after 8 months that it'd have settled wouldn't you?
Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have suggestions or know what it might be? Thanks everyone!
