Why is my period so heavy this month with clots?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

A sudden heavy period may be the result of normal hormonal fluctuations or a side effect of birth control. However, heavy periods can also indicate an underlying health condition. A person should talk to their doctor if they experience heavy bleeding or cramping that prevents them from completing normal activities

My periods are 20 days late and I need them to start within a day or two because I have LASIK eye surgery in 4 days. I'll be on heavy meds and want my period before the procedure. What can I do to make it come sooner?

It won't come so soon You need 5 days dosage following which period will come in 7-10 days

I'm 45 days late and I've already done a few home pregnancy tests and even a blood pregnancy test within 30 days of missing my period, all of them were negative. The doctor gave me primolutn for 5 days, 3 times a day, and said I would get my periods in the next 5 days after finishing the pills, but it's been 9 days now and still nothing. I'm feeling really tired lately, my body aches, my breasts are super tender, and I've put on some weight that's not going away, plus lots of mood swings. I felt cramps a few times before I started the pills but no period or even spotting has happened yet, and I feel like I have a UTI because I'm peeing all the time. I'm supposed to see the doctor after I finally get my period for those day 2 tests. What's going on with me? Could I actually be pregnant even though the pregnancy tests are saying no?

It is possible to have a false negative pregnancy test, especially if the test is taken too early or not done correctly. However, considering your symptoms and the medications you have been taking, it is less likely that you are pregnant. Given your history of PCOD and the symptoms you are experiencing, it is possible that your delayed period and other symptoms could be due to hormonal imbalances related to PCOD. It is also possible that the medications you have been taking, such as Primolut-N, could be affecting your menstrual cycle.

I've been trying to conceive for 13 years and have PCOD. My left fallopian tube is slightly damaged according to an HSG done in 2012. My current gynecologist is recommending laparoscopic surgery but previous doctors never suggested it. Is this surgery really necessary or are there other options I should consider?

Yes surgery is advised.A gynaec opinion is advised to the patient.
