Periods gone haywire

Please bear with me. This may be a little long.

I have had horrendous periods since August 2020 (1st and only child born May 2020).

Investigations Inc a laparoscopy showed no endo, but they lazered off scar tissue that had glued my womb to my bladder (had classic endo symptoms, probably for years but masked by hormonal contraception). Mirena popped in during the op. This was 2021.

Year later coil removed (3 week periods for a year plus total loss of sex drive). The bugger went walkabouts so had it removed (2022).

Periods slowly returned to pre op type, lots of pain, flooding and needing to use tranexamic acid to control them, pain during sex and going to the loo, severe ovulation pain.

July 2024 transvaginal scan showed polycystic ovaries; hormone test was normal. The blood test was taken around ovulation (not sure this is relevant).

Since July periods have dropped off; I have gone from 7-9 days bleeding, first 4 v heavy and unmanageable to 4 days of a light period, enough to use panty liners

I know I jeed to ring the docs but I am incredibly confused and would like to hear if anyone else has experienced anything like this? I've been told everything it's not but am no closer to what it could be! Something isn't right and this sudden lightening of my period seems very suspicious.

I am 35 and up to date with smears. Any advice is welcome.
