Title: Covid & Bleeding
Post by: Cassie on February 25, 2023, 12:26:14 PM

I was chatting to a friend who is also on HRT she has recently had Covid and she said she got a bleed on the 3rd day of her infection when she was not due one. Has anyone on HRT who has had Covid found that it brought on a bleed? She said it was not as heavy as her usual withdrawal bleed and lasted fewer days.

My 42 year old neice had this last year.  She bled so much she was taken to hospital by ambulance.  It all settled down and was fine.  Scary though.  Hope you are ok.

Really Donnadoobie isnt that strange, and yet a normal flu doesnt cause this at all, how odd.
