I was on the depo injection for 4 years when i fell pg with DD who is 4 in Jan.
I've always had heavy periods, that were not particularly regular but now they are horrendous!
I went to see a gp about 2 year ago, who told me it's after effects of the injection (4 years later??) I then visited again when having a particularly bad time and losing clots to be told the same thing. This time i was sent home upset but was actually having a m/c.
A year later again during one of these strange periods i had a horrendous loss was rushed to hospital and lost twins at 13 weeks.
My periods are just awful I seem to spot, then a couple of days later have a heavy-ish period for 3 days then the following week bleed heavier for anything between 3 and 6 days. This then re-occurs a month later.
I cannot have the pill as i am allergic to one of it's ingredients as with the patch - and the depo well i fell pg taking it and it's obvioulsy wreaked havoc with my body!
I often feel very tired and low and have terrbile mood swings, which i think are down to my monthlies...
Sorry if this is all TMI - but i needed to release.
Should i go back to the Doctors with DP's support and request a female Doctor? I just feel every time i go they just shrug and offer now tests or support or anything.
Thanks for letting me drone on...
