Hi all. I'm posting here for advice as this is unusual for me. Since having a baby last June, I haven't had a period as I started on the mini-pill around 6 weeks after he was born. About 3 weeks ago, I missed 2 pills and had a withdrawal bleed as expected, which stopped after 3 or so days. 10 days after that, my real period came, which I also just put down to missing the 2 pills.. however, it's been almost a week and it's still very heavy and with clots.. I had cramps at the start but not any more.. it just feels like it's never going to slow down! And it's not 'old blood' as it's consistently bright red.
Is it worth contacting the GP about this? I know things can be different after pregnancy, but I didn't expect the flow to be this heavy for this long.
