TMI - I'm a mess - spotting for 4 weeks

So I hadn't had a period for 17 months prior to having wls.  Then, a couple months after surgery, I started spotting.  Four weeks later and I'm still spotting.  

TMI alert - tonight we finally decided we couldn't wait for the spotting to stop & had sex.  Immediately after, I had pain deep in my pelvis and went to the bathroom to find a lot of bright red blood.  What the hell is wrong with me?  

I'm calling my gyn tomorrow to make an appt.  Anyone have any insight?

I'm really sorry your suffering so much! I can't help you, I had a partial hysterectomy when I was 25 years old.
 Although I have heard that some people regulate right after surgery, I do know that I have had a few friends who need some help from gyno after because they cant stop bleeding!
 Good luck with getting to the bottom of this!

I know this post is a couple of days old but first let me say:  17 months = a LOT of blood built up in your lining which means you have a TON to shed!  You should NEVER, EVER go 17 months without a period... what were you thinking friend???  If you can't have a period on your own, it is recommended to take the hormones necessary to bring it on at least every six months if not every three!!  Wow.  But of course we don't like to do that, do we, so I do understand.

Did you get an appointment with your doctor, and if so, when is it?  I'm sure they will do an ultrasound to see what is going on in there.

Keep us posted, we want to know we have a healthy cyster.
