7 month post op uterine fibroid embolism

Posted , 4 users are following.

I'm in pain and bleeding again. I will make appointment with my gyno . I was putting it off, hoping it would just stop, yeah right😣. I researched a little it might be that, my arteries rejected the little things they injected into them or the Dr. that performed my surgery missed the left side somehow. Because that's the side that is killing me.I'll post again soon..

      Hi Amanda, I had mine done about 4 years ago.  It took about a year for my periods to completely normalize. Recently I've had a couple of bad periods, a few months apart, and thought my luck had run out and my hellish period was returning (I would bleed for 12-15 days a month. One day would be so heavy that I couldn't leave the house, and had to get up twice in the middle of the night to change pads. About another 4-5 days would be super heavy, but at least I could drive to work. Then they would get lighter). 

      I realized just after the 2nd return episode that antibiotics were triggering the irregular periods to temporarily return.   Try looking for a possible trigger.
