Update: Gyno
First of all sorry I thought I had explained what was going on when I asked buckswife for a recommendation, I guess I didnt.
Heres whats going on. In september I was 1 week late, panicked, and took a pg test. Negative. Started my period two days later and then never stopped bleeding. It got much lighter but was still a light flow or atleast a tinted discharge. This month I had a normal period but again still did not stop bleeding. I had an appt today. I had my normal exam, but they also did some blood tests for hormone levels and thyroid. She put me on loestrin and talked to me about Mirena. Im still considering (and waiting to find out my ins coverage) The pharmacist said she loves Loestrin and surprise! Insurance covers it 100% so Im really hoping I like it. Im excited about the possibility of my face clearing up.
So no D&C and Im not, nor was I ever pregnant. Ill let you know my other test results when I find out Tuesday
Re: Update: Gyno
i was on loestrin, too. it's really low dose. your periods will eventually become non existent. i would spot for three days and that was it.
why did you think you'd need a d&c? isn't that for miscarriages?
Since the bleeding was real dark and continued for 40+ days I thought that they would need to "clear me out" Some coworkers thought I could have been pregnant or my body might have thought I was. It seems my hormones are just out of whack.
