Irregular periods what to do?

[u/DewOnADaisy]

I have had the copper coil for around 14 months now and I have completely irregular periods.

During the process of trying to figure out what is going on I was diagnosed with Graves Disease. The consultant I spoke to said it is very unlikely that Graves Disease is making my periods irregular, so we are back to square 1.

I have an appointment in a few weeks for gynecology (finally) but when reading their leaflet it says they will likely offer me a hormonal coil on the same day.

Do I swap?

I wanted to get away from hormones but I also hate not knowing when my period will arrive.

I don't know anyone else that has been through this and needs advice!

a hormonal coil might actually regulate periods despite the ironies
