The contraceptive pill-Cerazette & periods
Posted , 1 user is following.
Hi,
Sorry this is going to be quite a long post.
Basically I have suffered with heavy & painful periods since the age of about 15 (28 now as of writing this) I went on the combined pill & all was fine. I came off the pill at 23 & had a baby at 24. I had a premature labour at 26 weeks due to placenta eruption, and after having an emergency c section they found I have a Bicornate Uterus (heart-shaped)
After having my baby, I went back on the combined pill, which i was on until I was 27 & came off it due to different health reasons. My periods then came back with avengance. Heavy, very painful & my mood swings horrendous. I had had enough & went back to the drs. She put me on the cerazette pill as I don't want periods anymore. But since New Years day (2020) I have had 2 heavy periods, one of which lasted 7 days & I feel like I am about to come back on again for the 3 rd time in a month. Back ache, stomach cramps, mood swings... I did have a transvaginal scan last week & it was confirmed again I have a Bicornate Uterus & also confirmed PCOS. Seeing my dr again in 2 weeks & going to see if she can refer me to see a gyno. I just want a second opinion... Anyway, has anyone had any issues being on the Cerazette pill... my doctor told me to give it at least 3 months. But I am already getting frustrated. I have been under a lot of stress lately which probably don't help.
Oh and I have a healthy & very hyperactive 4 year old now 🤣 so thats on positive thing out of all of this 😊 xx
