I have been having 3week-1 month long periods w/ large clots. What could be causing the length and clots? Should I worry?

Hello everyone,

I too have been experiencing a prolonged period. My period started mid-February. I went to the doctor after two weeks of bleeding and prescribed birth control pills. I am 35 without children. My periods prior to this lasted about 4-5 days maximum. I am very concerned. I requested an ultrasound but the doctor won’t order it until I try the birth control for 3 mos. Needless to say, it’s almost a month later and I am still bleeding using about 3 tampons per day. Along with bleeding, I have been experiencing bloating, pelvic pressure, along with some discomfort on my left side. The doctor seems to think it may be a cyst. This is very draining. I pray my body heals. God help us all. I feel like the woman with the issue of blood in the Bible. I never knew her pain until now. I have been reading up on this and its horrible reading about the women who have dealt with this for years. My heart aches for them. I pray that everyone here be healed. <3

I been having my period for 3 weeks already. My periods are not regularly but this the first time it has been this long. Is this normal??

Hi,

I am 23 years old and I have periods since the age of 12. They have almost never been regular.

The last time I had periods, it lasted 2 weeks but it was nothing much to worry about for me.

A month after, I had started to see spotting and then a bit of blood. I now have very light periods. It has now been 3 weeks since I have my periods, very light ( they usually are bit abundant, but not so much ).

Could this be pre-menoposis ? Or what could be the problem ?

I really need help and would go to a doctor, even if this really embarrasse s me...

Thank you for your help ! :)

I too am experiencing a very prolonged period this month. It began on the 2nd of Feb and hasn't shown any sign of stopping. Also I have had some plum sized "jelly" like clots as well as bright red bleeding. I will be 50 in August and have had "regular" cycles since I was 13. I had 3 pregnancies resulting in 3 children - all healthy! I have no idea if this is menopause but this seems extreme. Also I am extremely tired and achy all over. Should I worry?

Thank you!

Hi!
I'm 17 and have been having irregular periods for about 3 years now. they are normally a minimum of 3 weeks and can last up to a whole 90 days. The bleeding is always very heavy, and as it should be coming to a stop, it becomes even heavier. I have been to the doctors so many times, but none of the medication they give me works. As i lose so much blood, I have now become anaemic, which means more meds yay.
No i haven't had any sexual contact at all whatsoever- so it's nothing to do with that. My doctor actually thought I was experiencing a miscarriage because of the amount of blood i was losing. It's scary.
It's honestly physically draining, i mean, i hate being on my period anyway, but for it to last so long is an absolute nightmare. I am on at the moment, and its been 24 days so far, it just doesnt seem to stop.

Thank you
