Heavy periods , TTC after being off pill 4 months.

Jessica

Hi All,

I have always had heavy periods, back when I was on the contraceptive pill and still now that I have been off the pill for 4 months.

I use the menstrual cup so I’ve been keeping record of much blood I am losing this time around.

Day 1: 30ml+ including sleeping that night

Day 2: 45ml including sleeping that night

Day 3 (today): 15ml so far.

My period normally lasts 4-5 days and I have already lost 90ml in day 3.

Is this something to be concerned about?

Is it something that could be affecting fertility (only on 2nd cycle trying to conceive)?

I am calling to book with my doctor tomorrow morning, but this is playing on my mind so I would appreciate any information from anyone with similar experiences.

Thanks
