Without going into too much I have decided to have an a medical reasons for a number of reasons (the worst decision I've ever had to make in my life to date!)

I took the first tablet yesterday and I'm booked in tomorrow morning to for hospital where I will spend the day after having 4 tablets internally.

Everything has been fine until this evening where I have started bleeding heavy with clots etc. I know you're meant to have some bleeding but this is proper coming out of me! I've tried ringing the ward and no answer and no answer from NHS helpline.

Any nurses / doctors on here that has any advice?! I'm in two minds to go down to A+E but don't want to be a time waster if it's normal...

Call 111 OP they'll be able to advise you better than strangers on the internet.

Really sorry to hear what your going through. I had the tablet years and years ago, i had to make a tough decisions for many different reasons like yourself. Its the hardest descion ever! But i dont remember bleeding after taking the 1st tablet...it was just after the 2nd lot as they gave me some pain relief but had to be inserted up my bottom as crude as that sounds. Id recommend phoning 111 they can get people to call you back and even book u an app at gp out of hours. Hope your sorted soon hun

Regardless of the cause, I've you are soaking through a pad in an hour or less you need to seek medical help.

I'm sorry things are so tough right now Flowers

Please monitor your blood loss carefully and get down to A&E if it is concerning you. I haemorrhaged and had to get an ambulance to hospital.

Your hospital should have discussed all this with you.

Just to add, mine was a medically managed miscarriage, but I'm assuming it's a very similar tablet if not the same.

More than a pad an hour and you should go to A&E (I was told two weeks ago). Thinking of you OP.
