Hi Menomale, ty so much for the reply,
My last normal period was in August then sept (this year) i was 10 days late coming on but instead of my normal heavy flow for 3 days then lighter for 2, I just spotted for 20 days then went straight into bleeding very heavy its been 4 days, no pads even Always discreet ultra long 8 hours protection are lasting more than an hour, can this sort of bleeding go on for years?, not sure how long i should wait to tell the Dr? im due to go back & see him n 3 weeks time, should i wait that long?.
sorry for the questions.xx

Hi yes periods were fine up until this point
I also suffer with depression/anxiety, im on 3 lots of meds , for the last year i have suffered daily with my face going very red & Burning hot, lasts up to about 5 mins but never put it down to anything so just put up with it.
The last couple weeks ive done nothing but cry, cry for no reason, feeling much lower than normal.
I went to visit my doctor who strongly believes im in menopause & has given me some more AD to take which has helped quite a bit with my crying/low mood
He briefly talked about HRT but wants to wait 3 weeks when he next see's me to how i have been coping, When i did see him i was only spotting so he doesnt know about the heavy bleeding & wasnt sure to tell him before hand or not incase it calms down or goes away?.xx
