Constant Headaches, Mid-cycle Spotting, Light Headedness, Excessive Thirst Post Delivery. What Can Be Done?

Hello, I know kind of personal issues but here goes. I recently started getting my period in april after having my child last july. I have been having 2 periods with spotting in between since then, I get constant headaches , light headedness, and am always thirsty. My doctor just keeps telling me I m fine and that my body is still adjusting. I am just so fed up with always having a headache, constantly going to the bathroom, and constantly bleeding . It gets very old, any suggestions on what to do? Thank you.

Hi.
Thanks for choosing HCM.
I can suggest you to take a blood test to rule out Diabetes.
The frequent headaches, thirst, excess urination, etc may be important.
The bleeding may be a symptom of post natal issue due to irregular hormones as told by your doctor.

thanks for the query, periods after a child birth may take some time to come back to regular, if its a moderate amount of blood flow during periods, nothing to worry, but if you are having spotting since delivery, any history of fever, foul smelling discharge from vagina better to conult a obstetrisian, i hope i have addressed your query.

get well soon
