    Sudden Flooding

    Ok, I suffer from crazy periods - really heavy / irregular / painful and tons of thick clots!

    I mean it has kept me at home due to the pain and I have been to a&e about 7 times in the last 2 years due to the pain. So not an easy time!

    However on top of this I am now having a new problem! Everytime I have sex it looks like a massacre has happened blood everywhere and the pain feels like my stomach is being stabbed!

    Anyhow on Saturday I was at a friends house and all of a sudden there was blood everywhere all the way down my legs and the floor it was full of thick clots and I had to go to the bathroom but it wouldnt stop it lasted about 2 hours and the heavyness didnt let up I basically had to sit in a bath and wait I was terrified but felt to stupid to go to a&e because they rarely take it seriously telling me that I know I have these issues and to see a gynae (I have seen soooo many but they havent found any reason thus far!) I am now regretting not going because maybe they could have sorted it? I am still bleeding even though my last period only finished 12 days ago and now since the crazyness on saturday I am still quite heavy.

    I have had sudden flooding before but not on this scale! I really dont know what to do but I know something must be wrong.

    My periods have been crazy since I was 16 and Im now 24 with no answers! My husband and I are also trying to concieve and having no luck which is a pain and the crazy bleeding isnt helping!

    Any help?!

    The BEST advice I can give based on my regrets personally is GO SEE A OBGYN. Have them check your iron count too.

      exact same thing happened to me in March 2009,
      however my periods were that heavy and lasted a month with non stop clotting,

      i would definitley get an iron count and your doctor will probably give you birth control pill to stop it
      it stopped mine
