I'm 23 and experienced 3 weeks of heavy bleeding so my gp prescribed me norethisterone. I had blood tests and swabs which were fine except my thyroid TSH was high. I took 1 tablet three times daily for 10 days and the heavy bleeding did not stop until nearly the end of the course. I have been on the depo injection for years and tuesday gone have now changed to the mini pill cerazette which is basically the same. I started to bleed like the nurse told me i would after stopping the tablets from wednesday but today experienced a large amount of dark clots and heavy bleeding. Is this normal? Nurse said if i had clots to go back to see her and gave me another prescription for norethisterone but i don't want to start taking them again as i had bad headaches and i have gained 10lbs in weight. Help anyone? I was off work for 2 weeks and can't be off again as it made me weak and tired

View 2 RepliesMenstrual Cycle :: Heavier Period Than Normal?
Last month, I had a very light period that only lasted two days. After that, I had bad cramps in my hips and pelvic area. They lasted for about two weeks or so. Yesterday, I finally got my period. But when I woke up today, I had leaked, and bled through my underwear and pants. This isn't really normal for me, I've never had a leak before. I'm guessing that my period is a lot heavier than it usually is.
I'm 14, and I know that my period isn't supposed to regulate for about 2 or 3 years, but is this something I should be concerned about? I could just be working myself up over nothing, but anything that isn't normal terrifies me.
Bowel Disorders :: Dark Brown And Black Stool
I recently broke up with my girlfriend and had a few days of pretty heavy drinking, 12+ beers throughout the day and night each day. I have always been somewhat of a heavy drinker and shortly after those 3 rough days of being down and in a dark place, I started to notice my stool was very dark brown or on the verge of black. It doesn't stink though. I read up on reasons why this would happen and the bleeding obviously scared me because of the drinking. Although I also had been taking some Chlorella supplements that contain iron off and on but they never gave me this color stool before. Sometimes green. Along with some Pepto Bismol the day before but only 2 doses, which is another cause. Some purple flavored sports drinks and even prune juice. So all of this can add up to the dark colored stool from what I read but I am still very worried. My stomach has been uneasy and makes me feel like I don't want to eat anything. Not sure if it's an upset stomach or still from the hangover. I'm into day 2 now, and it is still there and unsure when it should go away if it was from something other than bleeding? It doesn't seem to be dark black like tar or stink so I am keeping my fingers crossed. I am 27 and have always been very healthy other than my drinking habit which I am obviously going to drop because this has scared the poop out of me
Its Friday now and have dropped all the supplements and juices to see if it goes away. Just not sure how long it would take to go back to normal since I took multiple things that could cause it. I guess otherwise I will be calling the doctor on Monday.
Menstruation :: Yasmin - Flow Was Dark Brown/Black In Colour
So my period ended 4 days ago. The blood flow was really different in that it was Dark Brown/Black in colour for the whole period. After the last day of my menstrual bleed, I have been experiencing hard stool which would push me to force a little harder to push my stool out. In doing so, (meaning pushing a bit harder to poo) I would see a flow of bright red blood running out like urine (which does not contain any clots). This has been happening for the past 4 days after my regular period ended. Is this normal or should I be alarmed? P.S. I recently started using oral contraception (Yasmin) last month

Recently I decided to remove nail polish from my toes that I've had on for a few months. When I removed this nail polish all the nails were completely normal, except my big toe on my left foot had a black or dark brown "patch" on it.

Go to the URL above if the picture doesn't work to see my toe.
If anyone could help answer what this is, it would mean the world. I'm really worried and I'm not sure what it is...if it is cancer, a bruise or a fungal infection, etc.....there are so many possibilities and I'd really love an answer! It doesn't hurt if I press on it, but I am still worried.
BTW I did go on a camp where I hiked for hours and hours and my toes (not just my big toe) hurt when I pressed on them for a couple days after but it went away quickly - this was a few months ago. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with what has happened but yeah...
So - if anyone could give me a name of what I have and how I can treat it, it would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks again!

View 1 RepliesBirth Control (Tri-Previfem) - Spotting - Dark Brown, Almost Black Discharge
I'm very scared and freaked out right now. I've been on Birth Control (Tri-Previfem) for two years now and have never spotted in between periods. I went to visit my boyfriend last week and we had unprotected sex, but he didn't finish inside me. During the four days I was visiting him I took my pill inconsistently. I normally take it at 8:00 am every morning, but I was taking it at around 9 or 10 am while visiting him.
It's been a week since the unprotected sex and I've been taking my pill constantly at 8 am, but I just noticed very dark brown, almost black discharge when I go to the bathroom and wipe.
I'm freaking out because this has never happened and I don't know what to do so I thought that someone might have some advice or answers.
Hemorrhoids :: Stools Blood Is Dark Or Black - PILES?
Been back and forth to the doctor for the past 6 month trying to find what is causing all of the abdominal issues I'm having.
Doctor has given me a working diagnosis of IBS with reflux and hemorrhoids (as i pass blood, sometimes frequently and then sometimes it can stop for weeks at a time).
I've requested that he refers me to the gastroenterologist as I'm not satisfied with his diagnosis for a couple of reasons.
The main reason is that when i pass blood, it isn't always bright red ... sometimes it is darker ... it's never really dark or black, but it's just simple a medium shade of red ... can internal hemorrhoids cause this color of blood on the stool? (There is never a lot and Its never mixed in with the stool, it usually either streaks the outside of the stool or is mixed in with mucus at the start of my bowel movement).
It's the darker colour of the blood that makes me think it's coming from further up the digestive tract though which makes me think it's not hems.
Birth Control - Microgestin :: Light Pink, Dark Brown And Then Bright Red Blood
i've been on microgestin fe for four months now and i am on my third week of the pack. after sex, I noticed some light pink discharge. the next day, dark brown blood, and today i am noticing a tiny bit of bright red that contains some mucous. is this due to the hour difference that i am taking my pills since it is daylight savings time? or just a common side effect?
View 1 RepliesHyperthyroidism :: Shortened Menstrual Cycle With Prolonged Menstrual Bleeding
I need to adjust my thyroid supplement therapy. I won't be able to see any of my doctors (GP, gynecologist, endocrinologist) for at least a month. Waiting list is that long.
I have PCOS and Hashimoto's (treated with T4 and T3). My periods have been regular (between 28 and 35 days) since I was 12. However, this month I had my period barely three weeks after the last one. It usually lasts for about 5 days, however today's my 7th day and it doesn't look as if it's going to stop. I've seen my gynecologist twice this august, and all the results were fine.
It's certainly due to overmedication. My endo increased the dosage of my medication 4 months ago. Since then, I tested my TSH and got bad result - 0,1.
She has decreased my dose since, but the result remains the same - 0,1. I'm aware that I need professional help, but I must do something. I can't continue my therapy like this. Any advice on how to decrease the dosage from 50 mg levothyroxine (T3) and 50 mg euthyral (T4 and T3) would save me.

I have had high blood pressure since 2009. My medication will control it until around my menstrual cycle. I will have horrible headaches that turn into migraines and my blood pressure will jump to 180/110 and stay there for a few days. My doctor stated that it is stress related, but my question is: if it is stress related, why do I just have these horrific headaches and my blood pressure skyrocket just around my menstrual? I can't find the answer. I have researched it and have ask my physician, but no new light has been shed. Does anyone have any information?
