Tired, Dizzy, Nauseous and Spotting for over a month

Posted by juliaguliastl @juliaguliastl, Sep 20, 2023

We moved 3 weeks ago, combining my BF and my households, total of 6 kids (some big, some little). I thought my spotting was just from stress before the move but it has continued now for over a month. I have to wear a tampon or pad every day. It's not heavy, but I have to change if I don't wear either. I also am worn out and tired. Cld my OBGYN and they said to take iron. I have been taking iron supplements almost a month, still spotting daily. I'm worn out and tired, nauseous too, every couple of days. I have an OBGYN appt this week, regular dr next week. Not sure if I'm about to start going through the change or what.

Glad your following up with your providers.

Hopefully beside a pelvic exam they do blood work. Ask about an Iron / Ferritin blood test in addition to normal CBC (which includes hemoglobin).

Good luck
