sorry ladies...i am so embarrassed even asking this, as it is TMI but i need someone to ask and i didnt know where to ask either so im not sure if i have put thi in the right place!!

I came on my period the other day and at first it was normal, but a couple of days into it the blood was orange and i mean orange...not even close to red. today its gone back to its usual red colour. but should i be worrying about this??

[madmum_sarah]

im not sure if you should worry hun but i know after my m/c my first af was fairly normal but i certainly had an "orange" day or 2 but second was back to normal!
hope one of the other girls can help

I havnt had it, but i remember about a month or so ago someone posted that they were having orange days.... if i remember correctly. I think it was Amber (babyblue?). She said that she was having orange stuff, and sometimes clear-ish stuff?

[babyblue]

not me. I had pink and some clear, but not orange. Maybe do a search on the internet??

I can't help you at all, since it has never happened to me and I never heard of it happening to anyone else. I would do some research on the internet or call your Doctor (this is probably what I would do).

You know, the first couple of days after having both my babies, the initial post-partum bleeding was orange. I don't know if that's in any way related, I've never had an orange period.


But, it's on entirely unheard of....

Thanks ladies, well im going to go and see the doctor tomorrow if he can squeeze me in. i have looked on the internet and some things say its a sign of the menopuase and others say its anemia so im not looking anymore or i will scare myself stupid

[acolledge2]

I am the one that had the orange bleeding after the loss of the twins a few months ago. When I was seen they found that I was extremely anemic and needed to take iron pills for a month to correct the problem. (I was also extremely tired but couldn't settle down to sleep, had broken/yellowish fingernails, and always felt sluggish. )
Hope this helps someone else!!!

[madmum_sarah]

hope you get it sorted hunny
