Used replens as directed on sunday evening and again on wednesday evening. Next day thursday i started experiencing bladder fullness, feeling as if i had to urine every 5 mins or so. Each time i would fill the toilet bowl with red blood to include blood clots. This sent on for a full 12 hrs at which time i then stopped bleeding and a few hours after that i felt my bladder start going back to normal. During those 12 hrs, i experienced lack of bladder control. When i thought about urinating, i barely made it to toilet. I am 5 yrs post menopausal with no history of bleeding. I do not take hormone replacement or use any estrogen. I had a complete gyno checkup 4 wks and no problems. It was the result of the replen. Not just spotting but full bleeding like before menopause. On that thursday i called replens medical hotline. They told me that this bleeding was not a side effect and no one else had reported that side effect. I cannot believe i am the only person to experience this. I also do not take any prescription medicines. I believe this side effect should be investigated and reported as a possible side effect to this over the counter drug. "how was it used: vaginal. " dates of use: (b)(6) 2018 - (b)(6) 2018. Reason for use: vaginal dryness.
