Bleeding since June

4 replies

Hello,
I'm really hoping someone has a word of encouragement because I feel dreadful.
Iv been using HRT gel and had a marina coil fitted over a year ago,
Iv now been bleeding since June and a scan revealed the coil was pressing onto a fibroid.
I'm so wracked with anxiety, I feel dreadful with all the usual symptoms but I'm also just so exhausted and can't seem to get myself going.
Iv removed the coil this afternoon because waiting until January for the next available appointment would mean me feeling like this over Christmas and I seriously need to feel better. Does anyone have any encouraging words?

I’m so sorry you are feeling like this. Hopefully the bleeding will ease without the coil. I totally empathise as have had heavy bleeding for the past three months and am due to have ablation and a cyst removed next week and while part of me dreads it I cannot go on like this. It is draining. I hope you get relief now

Honestly Iv woken up today a bit crampy and still bleeding but like a feeling of calm had come over me! It's probably a placebo effect but I'm loving it

Well done for removing the coil I was in same position unfortunately the firbroid grew around the coil so I had to wait 9mths in the end to have it removed under GA as they tried under local but couldn’t do it. I had another coil put in place and honestly started to feel better within a few days, after feeling dreadful for 12months. I’d go ask for progesterone tablets to take at night time if you still using oestrogen they stop the womb thicken if you have no coil in place and are essential to stop further issues so do go see your GP but I hope you feel better soon. It’s really draining dealing with constant bleeding and wonky hormones.

I didn't know that so il give them a call tomorrow thank you so much!

I have actually finally stopped bleeding :)
Iv never suffered with anxiety and it's giving me the wobbles a lot at present so that's the next thing to get under control.
