Heavy Bleeding, Tired, Cramps But The Pregnancy Test Was Negative. Is This Normal?
I last had sex WITH A CONDOM on October 12 and I then started bleeding heavily with clots and everything on the 18th and started birth control on the 20th and for the second time after about 3 weeks off and my the bleeding stopped on the 22nd then I had fairly heavy bleeding from the 13-16th of november. My symptoms are I get easily physically tired, bloated, feel pretty sick, crampy all over my body, amd dizzy, amd pretty tired. I don't know if I'm getting sick or its the pills but do you think I'm pregnant?...I've also taken 3 negative pregnancy tests(took one yesterday) .I've looked up a lot online and many peoe have said you can bleed on your normal period all the way through and others have said only the first mont so I'm Really confused

Hello
Thank you fro writing to HCM
The symptoms you mentioned of fatigue and bloating and sickness can be associated with even anemia or low hemoglobin levels
The menstrual flow is more than normal, which requires further testing , blood test to see if there is any endocrine dysfunction and then Ultrasound of the pelvis to see if the uterus and ovary are normal
After proper work up it will be advised to use the birth control pills
Hope to have answered your query
