hello everyone!

im a bit worried recently as ive been having worsening issues with my periods which started since last year.

from the start, in the beginning of 2020, i was having some issues that my periods were very irregular and didnt have many periods, so they sent me for a scan in august(delayed due to covid) which showed i had very large ovarian cysts(the biggest was 25cm), i had the surgery to remove them in oct 2020, and since my surgery, my periods have gradually become longer and longer with every month. it used to always be 5 days for me, but then i went to 13 days, then 37 days ect. now ive have a ongoing period that has not stopped since sep 5th 21(its now dec 3 21).

i recently finally got another gyni and scan, the scan came back clear or any issues, and the gyni told me i should just get a coil to solve it. this got me a bit upset because a coil would only mask my issues and surely there is something going on for my period to be this long. i dont know what to do now.

any advice? ❤️

    Seems the surgery was a kind of botch job. The best thing you can do is have a surgery repair.
