hormone / period query

Hi. So without being too scatty or giving TMI, i am having very odd periods and really turbulent emotions.

I am 33, a Mum of 2 (4yo and 2yo).

My periods are regular but the last 6 months i have one or two very extreme days of bleeding, then i get like 3/4 days without any and that is followed by loose watery clear fluid with brown specs / brown blood in it. I am 10 days post period today and am still getting this.

I am finding that i am very hormonal too, throughout the month. I get peaks and lows, like i haven't ever had before. My down days are really really bad.

I am wondering if this sounds like i have a hormonal issue or something? It's hard t manage my mood and also hard to manage the bleeding which basically feels constant. I need to see the Doctor i suppose but can't bare spending an hour making 78 calls to be in a huge queue to possibly not even get an appointment.

Any advice welcome, thank you.

Are you on any contraception that could be causing this?
Any pain at all?
I'd advise going to the GP and speaking to them, as we cannot say for sure so to put your mind at rest it's probably best, especially if it's all very unlike you. They can always put in for routine bloods to be checked to make sure all is ok with hormones etc, and may even want to have a feel around and make sure everything is of no concern.. I've not experienced this so other than advising to see a GP, I have nothing else to add.
Though I do hope you feel better soon - I can however feel you in the sense of getting through and getting an appt with a GP 😂 it's a struggle x
