I am 5 weeks postpartum and I had stopped bleeding a while ago but suddenly yesterday I started bleeding again heavily. I use the overnight pads and fill 6-10 a day. Much heavier than my periods have ever been. I have been having issues with focus and faintness, no pain, trouble eating and a little nausea, also diarrhea. Should I be worried?

Gynaecologist•Delhi

Postpartum hemorrhage is a condition where a woman may lose a lot of blood (approximately 500ml to 1000ml) from her vulva shortly after childbirth. This usually occurs within the first 24 hrs of childbirth and can even result in severe blood loss threatening the mother s life in case the blood loss is over 2000 ml. Secondary postpartum hemorrhage can also occur until 12 weeks after childbirth and this extra care should be taken, if there is any such possibility.

Asked for female, 50 years old from Bangalore

I'm 50 years old. Ultrasound of abdomen and pelvis says bulky uterus with 3 fibroids. 6.86.6, 3.8 2.7 and 2.8* 2.2 cms. I have started with sevista 60 mg about 3 weeks back twice a week along with multivitamin, multimineral, iron supplements and calcium, vit d supplements, thyroid med 25 just morning once. Bleeding did reduce little but still there post my periods very little along with frequent urination. Hence night sleep is also disturbed. I do get low pelvic pain and back pain radiating to the thighs. I can understand as fibroids are large it will take time but kindly advice me how to handle this pain and associated little bleeding. If any doctor responds to this how can I contact them back?

You will need pain killers and some additional medicines for frequent urination. There are some specific exercises for it too. I hope blood tests have been done to rule out any added medical condition. If you would like to get in touch my code is ssf1c4.

I assume you are saying that you are pregnant now and have taken medicines for termination.
With three miscarriages in past what one needs is detailed reports and treatment and not one more termination.
If medicines fail there is a chance of future implication.

My friend took mifepristone 25 mg for fibroid for 15 days (starting from 26th sept )and had intercourse (protected) during it. She had lap myomectomy done later on 20th oct when can she can expect periods and what are risks of pregnancy if she had intercourse while taking mifepristone.

Gynaecologist•

I doubt there is any chance of pregnancy. Though Mifepristone is not a contraceptive, since there has been instrumentation of the uterus it is likely to negate any chance of conception. Even then she can get a usg done after 6 weeks of her last periods. That should effectively clear any doubt.

Asked for female, 31 years old from Kochi

I had miscarriage without any bleeding or spotting found out in the ultrasound yesterday (my last period was on 19th may, in previous ultrasounds only gestational sac and yolk sac is seen, no fetal pole or embryo). There is 2 cm size blood clotting in the uterus. So the doctor gave me the abortion tablet. After taking the medicine (4 tablets) there was very little bleeding, so the doctor suggested that it take 2 more tablets. My question is when can I try for my next pregnancy?

Before you ask about next pregnancy two steps-
1) to confirm that abortion is complete.
2) some reports, vaccinations and supplements required before planning next preg.

Hi. I was told that I have an imbalance in my hormones and was put on evecare, however since taking the evecare iâve had breast pain and iâm menstruating more then before. Iâve only taken one months supply of the evecare. Is this a normal reaction? Iâd also like to know if the evecare helps with depression/low mood? Thanks.

Probably that herbal preparation has altered your hormonal levels, which is apparent from the complaints you have mentioned. You need to consult the prescribing alternate medical specialist and get the needful done. Consult a gyne to get your cycles back to normalcy and get your mastalgia treated too. Good luck.
