Super heavy periods

A few months after having my daughter (via c-section) I started having seriously heavy periods like I have never had before she's almost 2). TMI but super clotty and so heavy I have literally bled through my clothes on a few occassions. It's just gross! It also lasts a full 7 days. used to only be 4 or 5. ANone have an experience like this? What was the reason? I had a sono which came back fine except they said my endometrium was thick. im going for a biopsy but wondering if anyone has had a similar experience. TIA!

Super heavy periods

Once I would get AF after deliveries it was heavy and took about 6 months to slow down(become normal). I have heavy periods anyway but after deliveries it's pretty bad. Good Luck.

Re: Super heavy periods

Yes after DD it was HEAVY.
I never ever had heavy periods before
I took about a year or so to regulate a bit and get lighter

Super heavy periods

i had a similar situatio, and when i had an MRI on my hip, the radiologist mentioned andeomyosis. basically a variant of endometriosis. Saw my OB about it, and she didn't argue about it. And i went back on depoprovera shots to stop my periods. I was alsp getting very severe cramping along with all the other symptoms. and the shots took care of all of it.

Re: Super heavy periods

I had my DD 4 years ago and my periods have been heavy ever since. But only the 2nd day. On the 2nd day I wear an overnight pad the whoe day, but I have to change it once or twice. Clots, etc.

Re: Super heavy periods

Went for the biopsy yesterday and it was one of the worst experiences of my life!! Hurt so bad, I wasn't prepared for it. I though maybe like a pap but not even close Hoping it's nothing, results in a week.
