I have bled constantly since the birth of my son 19/03/2011 with maybe a window of 4/5days a month with light spotting. Doctors have had me every contraceptive. Had the marina coil applied in 2013. Reffered to gynaecology had my cervix cauterised in 2014. This also failed. The doctor then advised me to take the pill as well as the marina coil. I requested a hysterectomy as I have two children and not wanting anymore but got declined.

In their words I will just have to learn to live with it!! Two years later I am still constantly bleeding my relationships have broken down as there is no physical relation. I am completely fed up/depressed about my situation and I have had enough. Is there anything at all u can recommend? Thank you

    Hi Bekki88,

    why have the doctors declined to give you a hsteerectomy?? HAve you had your iron levels checked?

    I feel for you! You are very brave.

    Just take lots of iron and magnesium and vitamin c.

    Good luck!!

      Hiya. They said it wasn't worth the health risks because of my age!! Surely it's got to be better than bleeding constantly

    You need a new gynocologist fast. You bleeding that long is very dangerous !! You could become anemic and sick. Did they do a uterine biopsy! Or do a uterine ultrasound? Both of those need to be done immediately !! I highly recommend getting a new gynocologist immediately! Keep us updated

      Yep I've had both and they didn't find anything that could cause it. They gave me the pill to take as well as having the marina but I didn't fancy putting all the hormones into my system 😊

      I know the thought of putting progesterone into your system is scary but it honestly may. E a dream come true. Because if you've had a biopsy and ultrasound and both. And back clear. It's more than likely out of control estrogen that's causing the bleeding. So with the mirena and its progesterone it will balance that out. You could try it. The mirena is easily removeable. Good luck. Keep me updated
