Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I started what I thought was my period 12 days ago. Straight away it was dark brown and thick. It has carried on this way, turning almost black and is not heavy enough to fill a pad in a day. It is thick, sometimes with clots and sometimes with coffee grain in the toilet bowl. I had the Nexaplanon fitted in December and have had normal but heavy periods up until this cycle. Last smear test was normal approx 8 months ago. Please help.
