NO“Heavy, irregular bleeding can be frustrating and disruptive, and we see so many patients struggling to find the right solution. A recent comment mentioned trying Junel (a combination birth control pill) and Provera (a form of progesterone), both commonly used to regulate cycles and reduce heavy bleeding. But what happens when these options don’t work?
If someone doesn’t respond to birth control pills or progesterone, the next steps depend on the severity of the bleeding. In cases of uncontrolled heavy bleeding, the ultimate treatment is IV estrogen, which is administered in a hospital setting to stabilize the lining of the uterus.
Every person’s body responds differently, which is why finding the right treatment takes time. If you’re dealing with persistent heavy bleeding, don’t wait—talk to your gynecologist to explore the best options for you. 💜 #heavyperiods #obgyn #periodproblems
