NEED ADVICE-monthly enemy
| Thu, 03-01-2007 - 2:55am |
TY in advance to anyone who takes the time to respond to me.
I have been on the Paraguard Copper IUD for one year now. My periods have been a bit heavier ever since I've had it, and for the most part theyhave been regular. In the past I have never had problems with irregularities of any sort with my monthly enemy.
**My last period was 7 days late, normal-a little lighter maybe.
**I had a few spotting instances inbetween that period and the current one.(just enough to notice while wiping)
**Eventhough my last period was late, this one came exactly 21 days from the start of the late one-weird
**My first two days on this one I wasnt even sure I needed a tampon it was so light and sporadic
**MAIN CONCERN-I am on day 6/7 of my period and I still have quite a moderate amount coming....It's RED not pink or brown or anything. I've also had some clot like material that I dont think I've had before or maybe I never noticed this. I'm worried about a possible preg, cysts etc.... I am also worried about bleeding too much. My DD was born a year ago and I lost 6 units of blood. D&C, blood transfusion etc...So obviously too much blood leaving my body makes me scared and worried. I'm getting this freakin IUD removed on Tuesday but until then they really dont want to see me unless I fill a pad an hour for so many hours or I feel faint or in shock. Any advice or reassurance if applicable would be greatly appreciated. Sorry so Long!
God Bless,
Leah
