I got my period on April 1st and on may the 18th I went to the dr because it was still going she prescribed me norethisterone tableta for 5 days and told me I would get a withdrawal bleed once I had finished taking the pills - less than a day after stopping the pills (may 24th) I started bleeding 3 days ago the bleeding got very heavy on the worst day I went through 26 super tampons and 5 pads but I found the pads were useless and had some nappies from prior to my daughter being toilet trained so started using them and went through 6 of them that day too.Yesterday I went to A&E because I was in so much pain in my lower abdomen (right down by my groin) they did blood tests and because all my levels were ok they sent me home with codeine,ibruprofen and paracetamol these are working but only for a couple of hours and the pain is horrible - they said follow up with my gp and see about going on some contraceptive pills to control things but something is really not right and I feel I can t ignore it the pain is a very sharp stabbing pain and is most relieved when I am doubled over it goes through to my lower back and down my thighs - what could be some possible causes for this pain and the rediculas amount of bleeding?
