What Causes Clots/tissues In Periods While Missed Medicine For Fibroids?

Hi Doctor, I have been having 4-5 fibroids for the past 10 years. I am 50 years and have been taking homeopathic remedies all the while. My symptoms have been kept very much under control and bleeding has been very controlled. But unfortunately I had missed my medicines for the past one and half months and this month I have pieces of tissues and clots (mild) expelling for over 18 days after period. could this be because of missing the medicines. I do not have any other problems like cramps or other discomfort. My periods are also on time. The past few months when i was taking the medicines regularly my periods were perfect. Thank you for your time rad

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Fibroids by increasing the vasularity and surface area of uterus can lead to heavy and/or menstrual flow and can also lead to pain during periods. As you are having multiple fibroids, possibly they might have led to prolonged bleeding. Previously your medicines might have helped with this. But in perimenopausal age, hormonal imbalance can also lead to irregular menstrual flow. To be sure, please consult your gynecologist once, go for ultrasound to observe the present status of fibroids. If the fibroids are decreased in size, you may continue with your homeopathic medicine. If they are increasing in size and symptoms become severe, you may need to consider surgical option. Once you reach menopause, the fibroids will regress automatically. So, by discussing all these things with your doctor you can go for further management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
