abnormal bleeding
I have been bleeding for over 5 months now. I have no idea what to do. It goes from heavy to light then stops for a day or two then it gets really heavy to wear i have to like sit in the bathroom so it doesnt make a mess. FOr a cple months now i have been havin really bad back pain and cramping. And I feel sooo weak and tired all the time. And i swear i get more bloated everyday. Someone please help!!! What should I do!!! I have no med insurance so does ne one think I should go to the hospital?
Thank for the help I did go to the hospital today and they referred me to an obgyn that i have to call later this afternoon. The hospital doctor diagnosed me with uterine bleeding dysfunction. He did run tests and did say that i dont have anemia which is good. But I do get HUGE clots all the time which i told him about but he didnt say nething about those. But Thanks for the help and I will be praying for you as well!

Your health is very important!!!!! I started bleeding on Sunday and went to the ER Monday and left Tuesday afternoon. They did a full work up on me and I had no insurance at the time. I found out that I have Endometrial Hyperplasia (which is the thickening of the walls of my uterus) & Endometrial Polyps (growths on the wall of my uterus). I have only been passing blood and clots for 5 days now. It is a must that you go in immediately. The hospitals have hardship programs that will pay 100% of your ER bill. Also the pograms will allow you to file with the Doctor's Company so that assistance at a percentage or possibly 100% will be covered. Also if you will call your local Health Department they have sliding scale fees. For example here in Kentucky, I pay $10 to see the doctor, GYN, Specialist, Dentist etc. This is even the price for test that they have to send out for diagnostic. Also for medicines you can get on the M.A.P. Program which is (Medicine Assistance Program). With this you only have to pay $6 per month for your medicine - this cost will not change even if the medicine is $500 per month. Also in some states you can apply for a Medical Card with the state - this will supply free medical care until you can purchase insurance on your own. Call the Department of Families and Children, they can point you in the right direction for financial aid.
I have told you all of that to tell you this, your health is very important. There are so many women who die of Cancer all because they ignored the signs. If you are passing clots larger than a cherry (THIS IS NOT NORMAL). If your Menstral Cycle last more than a week (THIS IS NOT NORMAL). If your periods are coming more than once a month (THIS IS NOT NORMAL). So don't be ignorant about your care, don't make excuses to not follow thru - you can't buy a new life at the supermarket. The weakness and tiredness could be due to the lack of iron (Anemia). This happens when you cycles are too heavy. GET HELP I WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!
