I am hoping someone can answer my question. Four weeks ago I had a D&C due to a blighted ovum. I started my period this week and it is very heavy. Actually, I have never had a period this heavy before. Is this normalNormal saline flush? Thanks.
I had a miscarriage in late May and when I got my period in July it was heavier then it has ever been and lasted much longer then normalNormal saline flush. The nurse at my ob/gyn office said this is not abnormal. I did eventually have to go on progesterone becuase the period was not stopping on its own. I am taking that for two weeks (it stopped the bleeding) and supposedly when I stop it in about a week I will have a more normalNormal saline flush period. I didnt have a D & C though but I cannot imagine whether you had a natural miscarriage or a D & C that it would be much different.
Hope this helps.
I had to have one as well and after mine, I bled for almost a month! It was very heavy at first, but tapered off and was more of spotting after the first week, but it lasted a month- I hope yours doesn't!
Hope this helps.
