Hi

I’m 4 EC fortnightly before moving onto 4 Paclitaxel.

After my first EC I had a heavy period that lasted around 10 days, I’ve just had my 2nd EC and two days later another heavy period.!

I’m nearly 54…..! 
I had a Mirena for many years for heavy periods, but was advised to get this removed and to stop HRT -     I found out my cancer is hormone fed.

Has anyone else had this?, I think it’s making me feel even more exhausted .

Any advice greatly appreciated xxx

  • Ah thank you, I did contact my Oncologist today and she’s given me 4 days of Tranexamic Acid to help ease the bleeding and to contact her to see how things after that.
