I’m on the pill and for some reason I’ve been bleeding for 3.5 weeks. They took my blood, gave me internal and external ultrasounds, and a pelvic exam.

I requested a D&C and they refused. My grandmother got one when this happened to her and they complied.

The doctor pretty much told me “sorry we can’t do anything” and just told me to buy painkillers and wait it out. I hate how women are treated in healthcare. I wish there was something that could be done. It’s a burden on my life and the pain is abhorrent.

Rant over 😔
