Severe Periods Posted: 08-15-07 13:00pm
Hey,
I think you could be suffering from severe
menses or endometriosis. I used to have
big blood clots and severe pain but just
wrote it down to being unlucky in the
menses. I would make an appointment with a
gynae to be sure and I would also take up
some form of daily exercise as this worked
for me.
Hope you recover soon
God Bless.

IF YOU HAVE ENDOMETRIOSIS DON'T LET THEM
DO A HYSTERECTOMY TRY THE BIRTH CONTROL
FIRST AND HOPEFULLY THAT WILL HELP. IF IT
DOESN'T THERE IS ANOTHER PROCEDURE THAT
THEY CAN BURN THE INSIDE OF THE UTERUS I
FORGOT THE NAME BUT THE DOCTORS SHOULD
KNOW IF THEY DON'T ASK ANOTHER DOCTOR.
DON'T LET THEM CONVIENCE YOU OF A
HYSTERECTOMY IF THE PILLS DON'T WORK I
PRAY THAT THEY WILL WORK FOR YOU.

Endometriosis is scar tissue that is not
only on your uterus, it is in the
surrounding tissues as well.
The 'burning' procedure you are talking
about is an endometrial ablation - it is
used for UTERINE FIBROIDS not
endometriosis. Additionally, birth control
pills are used to prevent bleeding with
your periods. Another thing that is caused
by fibroids.
These measures don't generally help with
endometriosis. But they do help with
fibroids which it sounds like you may
have.
The birth control pills will totally help
(I know. I took them for fibroids. Worked
like a charm!)

I was severely bleeding and clotting for
several months following a miscarriage.
the Dr. put me on high doses of birth
control pills. I had a pedunculated
fibroid tumor and it BURST IN UTERO. I
had 4 units of blood transfused and a
partial hysterectomy. Birth control pills
have a long history of breast cancer,
clotting aneurisms, etc. read the package
inserts. 12 years later I am still
hormonally suffering. Find another Dr.
there are many of them out there.
