I’m looking for some advice - I’m having my first period (I think?!) after miscarrying and it’s painless but very heavy compared to usual and at times heavier than the miscarriage itself was. I’m not sure if I’m wrong thinking it’s my period and whether to go back to the EPU or ring my GP.
My missed miscarriage was confirmed at 12 weeks (6th Sept) and started as a miscarriage 3 days later. It lasted for around 10 days and I’ve had two scans since - the first showing I was about 70% done while I was still bleeding and second scan on 3rd October when all bleeding had stopped showed it was done, plus a negative pregnancy test, though they did discover a fibroid that no one had mentioned before in the four prior scans I’ve had through fertility tests etc.
I started spotting again on 7th October and then that became full bleeding on 10th and it’s just progressively getting heavier. I’m not in any pain but experiencing clots and bleeding through pads within around 2-3 hours.
My periods have always been reasonably light and lasted three days so I’m a bit unnerved. Could it be a really heavy period or am I still miscarrying? Would love some advice x
