Covid / menstrual alterations
Show your support
I had a blip in my periods for 4 months after covid . I didn’t bleed for - full 4 months . I was like omg I’m starting menopause . At the time the doctor pointed out to me it seems to be a common theme for women after covid and it effecting cycles
@Sally I'm also a nurse bit made my own informed decision at the time not to get it, iv absolutely no issue with those who choose to get it. Its a personal choice and rightly so but iv seen quite a lot in the last couple of years causing me to raise my eyebrows
After having covid I noticed I skipped a period and then the next month had 2 very close together. I noticed my cycles have got lighter unsure if this bit directly related to covid. I went through a stage of very heavy periods n clots.
@hayley be interesting to see what assistance you get?.. Keep in touch. X
Ah bless u yeah I do from doctors been on them a couple of weeks now x
@hayley no, this is day 9 I think, and I've not done anything excessive.... I nipped to the supermarket for 1 thing and literally I could see my jeans getting flooded... I panicked, went home and yup... 2 more large clots. I take iron supplements do you?
@Sally you poor thing so the tablets haven’t helped I am going 7 am in the morning I was praying it would slow down by now 😢
@Hilary that's really interesting. Yes triple jabbed. I'm a Midwife and can't really get out of the jab culture within a trust setting.... But i must say I'll put my foot down about a 4th.
@hayley A&E did blood tests, hormone levels to make sure it wasn't a pregnancy and a speculum examination which they said looked normal.... And sent me away with Transamanic acid. I'm flooded today, more clots so I'll call the GP first thing.
Did you have the vaccine? Not starting anything vax or anti vax. Just i haven't had my jabs and no issues. A few friends who have had it having same problem ,clotting excessive bleeding etc
I'm on HRT patches now but have mood swings and fatigue
I've had Covid but my periods have been unmanageable for years so I've not noticed a difference
Feel free to add me

@Jo thank you, I will. I kept saying I was covid positive last week, and i know there's a possible link, but they were more concerned that I might be miscarring, which I wasn't. But thank you.
Yes I did too ask them for pelvic scan too see if there is anything else
@Sally I was scheduled to have a scan today internal and external and it’s been out off til 20th now
