I went to the doctor two days ago, after having had an pelvis ultra sound. The good news was that the uterus was normal and everything else so they are more than certain that I am going through the peri menopause.
I had a blood test which showed abnormal kidney function which has really worried me, the dr said it could be that I was bleeding, so I've got to have another blood test in 3 weeks.
In the meantime yesterday I hadareally heavy bleed much much heavier than I had ever had and through thenight aswell it is really getting me down now so I went back ti the drs today to see if they could do anything else for me. A emergency gyane appointment has been made for me and Tranexamic Acid tablets have been prescribed. Has anyone else been through this and been prescribed these tablets and do they work, as I am going through hell at the moment and it is preventing me from working, and it is draining me
Hi Caoline,
Exactly the same hapened with me, I was precribed Tranexamic Acid as well, it did work in reducing the bleeding, I was also put on Norethisterone as my bleeding was prolonged. Eventually I had the Mirena Coil put in, although it took a while to work now my periods are very light but still prolonged so when I start to bleed it can go on for 6 weeks. Try not to worry, great the scan came back OK.
Sim, eu já passei por isso, tive que ir ao hospital, foi cerca de um ano antes da minha menstruação.
Parei (52).
Também passei por isso quando era bem jovem e usei Tran Acid, o que não fez muita diferença para mim, já que sempre tive menstruação pesada.
Meu último episódio foi até a menopausa. Quantos anos você tem, Caroline?
For about the last year I have had flooding periods the first 2 or 3 days of my period. Makes it hard to leave the house. Have not taken the tablets because they are an increased blood clot concern. I do take iron supplements.
I was desperate, I need to work and it was preventing me and was really draining me, I thought I was going to pass out
Yes, i understand. I get where my heart pounds and I feel like I am gonna pass out too, though it's better since I started taking the iron.
Bem, Caroline, parece que a mesma coisa está acontecendo com você.
Como eu disse, aos 53 anos o meu parou. Tente as pílulas por enquanto, qualquer coisa que possa aliviar o sangramento. Espero que se acalme e talvez pare completamente em breve.
Fique em contato e me avise como tudo está indo.
Meus melhores votos para você☺
Sim, tive que tomar ferro por anos quando estava sangrando muito.
Às vezes nem conseguia levar meus filhos à escola, meu marido tinha que voltar para casa para levá-los. E a dor! Ugh… não sinto saudade desses dias, com certeza. Tudo o que essa menopausa me trouxer, ainda é melhor do que aquilo! 
Espero que todos vocês consigam passar por isso logo!
