Long periods
Hi Ladies!
Just a query, anyone else having really long periods? I’m 7pm the PP from a c section the last couple of periods seem to go on for just over a week! First couple of days are slow and set me up for false hope that it’s going to be an easy ride and then it ramps up! On Thursday I thought it was done but then I started spotting again, I know my body is still regulating but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Was hoping to not go back on the pill but was thinking it might be the only option to help them?

I’m exactly the same! Before this pregnancy my periods used to last around 3/4 days. Now I’m on about 8/9 days- really light for like 2 days then super heavy, lighter, then heavy again… weird!x
Yh mine are really light too and I use the have the opposite. But I’ve been having cramps and feel sick all the time so I need investigations now 😩
@Joanne this sounds exactly like me! Reassuring to know it’s not just me, I’ll mention it to my doctor though I think to see if there’s anything they reccomend to help out!
It might be hormone related. I’ve done a lot of research and it says hormones can drop to the point of being in the premenopause after a C-section and can take months to come back up x

I’ve had this but I’ve also skipped a couple of periods too. I haven’t had a normal one yet since my C-section. I’m seeing a doctor about it on Monday
