Symptom narrative

The patient's menstrual cycle began two days after the vaccine and has not stopped. So from April 15 to at least June 1st she has been menstrating and has had severe symptoms such as pain in the ovaries and kidneys. She was given birth control progesterone for one month which did not stop the bleeding entirely. The patient reported mostly heavy days with a few days of light bleeding. In May, the patient had an ultrasound done which showed several hemorrhagic cysts had formed on both ovaries. The patient asked to be removed from the birth control as she felt it was making her even sicker, with more kidney pain, nausea, and moodiness. The patient had significant difficulty doing her normal work, and quit her full time job because she could not function mentally because of the pain of her menstration. She claims her mind is constantly in anguish from the bleeding and her ovaries feel as if they are experiencing twisting and burning. She has tried to get out of the house and walk but complains she feels very tired, lightheaded, lethargic, with very limited energy. The patient kept track of her periods for years which were always regular 4-5 days every 23-28 days. This is the first/only instance of trouble with her menstraul cycle being abnormal. She is in pain and wants medical advice on how to stop the bleeding.
