World News: A Tiktoker from the US shared her distressing tale of experiencing 1000 days of painful periods. The woman called Poppy recently opened up about her ordeal of having menstrual bleeding for more than 950 days despite many medical check-ups and treatments.
She revealed that her ordeal began when she had two-week-long periods that did not stop yet after which she consulted multiple doctors for tests, check-ups, and scans to find the root cause of her condition. Cysts were discovered in her ovaries, she was diagnosed with PCOS, had a hysteroscopy performed, and even an IUD insertion, all to no help.
She was finally able to pin her medical condition with the help of one of her TikTok followers who revealed that she has a rare condition called bicornate uterus, or the heart-shaped uterus. The symptoms include prolonged bleeding, pelvic distress, and painful periods. She later revealed doctors found out about her uterus condition earlier but its consequences were not realised until now.
