Re: Pain/irregular period

I think a smear and a check of your cervix is warranted because of the bleeding, and also ask them to refer you for a pelvic ultrasound

Re: Irregular and lengthy periods

hi - it's probably a combination of the PCOS and the natural change that occurs with having a baby. The problem for you is that any treatment- such as a Mirena - that might help is also contraceptive, while at the same time it is hard to predict when you are ovulating due to the irregularity and so ...

Re: The Pill - Side Effects

What about trying Yasmin?

If the polyp was in the endometrium (womb lining) it could be making the periods heavier.

Re: Very light periods since stopping the pill

No dont worry - regualr periods usually imply regualr ovulation 14 days before.

WRT the other question - look at it this way: the pill prevented you from loosing a lot of eggs over the years! so you should be fine

Its really unlikely to be from your uterus, and more likely to be from your bladder - I would ask for a referall to a urogynaecologist
