Menstrual bleeding not stopping(URGENT)

Hello Yogmaya,

I had almost the same problem as your sister! My baby is now 7 months old and after delivery I had bleeding for almost 12 weeks also, then it stopped and I had my regular period. The next month I started my period again but had bleeding for 15 days. Every time I picked something heavy I would bleed. My gynec told me that it is Ok to have bleeding this much, but she advised me to take lots of rest, and not lift anything heavy. I have a few questions for you
1.Did you sister have a c-section, because i did and that was one of the reasons I bled so much?
2. My bleeding was not heavy all the time, it was more like spotting, is her's heavy?
3.if her bleeding is heavy tell her to go see her gynec immediately...

hope this helps, and I cannot advise you on taking 2 BCP's for I have never heard of that.....

 

Hi,
I havent undergone this problem.But i would suggest u to consult with some other gynac.Is u r sister in US?if possible ask any indian gynac and send medicines thru courier.

 

hi have gone through the same thing. was bleeding for 6 months after delivery, with just breaks of a day or two in between. My gynae in dubai suggested me to have a hormone tablet,she said it was due to hormone imbalance. after childbirth ones hormone levels take a while to settle down. That was my case. am fine now with regular 28 day period cycle. But this was diagnoised after a ultrasound of the uterus which showed no problem. each ones case and reason could be different. Dont panic.after 1 cycle of the hormone tablet the bleeding did not stop, so even i was sugggested a pill, which i refused as it reduces the flow of milk. I opted for the second cycleof the hormone tablet.

 

Hari om yogmaya
i also share the problem. but my experience suggests that it would slowly reduce. yes.. my mil suggested the use of vazhaipu (flower of the banana plant) sabji /juice etc. this will help recoup.
this also helped.
take care.
