Suggest Treatments For Discharge Of Blood Clots,tiredness And Light Headedness

I was diagnosed with fibroids during pregnancy in 2008. I have recently been experiencing palm size clots and well as having some form of bleeding or discharge now everyday of the month. Most recently I have been extremely tired and any physical activity even as minimal as walking up the stair has my heart beating extremely fast and causes light headedness.

Hello!
I read carefully your query and understand your concerns.
All your symptoms might be related to uterine fibroid.
Uterine fibroid are benign growths that develop from the muscle tissue of the uterus.A fibroid may remain very small for a long time and suddenly grow up rapidly , or grow slowly over a number of years.

The symptoms of uterine fibroid include: longer and heavy menstrual periods,vaginal bleeding at times other than menstruation,abdominal pain etc.

As a result of this heavy,longer bleeding you might have developed anemia (low red blood cells and low hemoglobin).For this reason you are feeling symptoms related to anemia including tiredness,weakness,palpitation,lightheaded etc.

I suggest to consult an OBGYN doctor and get examined.
You probably need to run some tests including complete blood count (to evaluate the severity of anemia due to blood loss),abdominal ultrasound MRI to evaluate the dimensions of uterine fibroid.
The specialist will decide the right treatment for you.

Hope my answer has helped.
Take care.
