Been bleeding for three months help please

I started bleeding at the wns of August and has been bleeding up until now. I was provided with birth control pills in September that made me sick. After taking one pack of pills my period still didn't stop ao I was told to discontinue taking the pills and my doctor gave me birth control shot and provera. I stop bleeding for ten days after taking pervera and started back. The only thing the doctor can tell me is my hormonea are unbalanced and im tired of the bleeding. Someone please help me im 28 years old with one child. My husband is here for me but I can tell he is frustrated too.

If your hormones are out of balance that could definitely be the reason you are bleeding. I had this same problem and had to go on a pill with more progesterone and less estrogen. The bleeding stopped immediately. I have a horomone imbalance and getting the right balance of hormones in a bc pill has been a trial and error process for sure, but definitely get it checked and then get on the right pill for you.

Hi Keekeegaines,

I had the same problem a few years ago and my doc advised me to lay off the hormonal birth control. I did and the bleeding stopped after about 2 weeks. You may want to consider non hormonal contraceptives. Sorry to hear you are going through this.

What kind of doctor are you seeing? Is it just a plain doctor or is it an obgyn? If this is an obgyn and is not helping then you need to find a new doc who will spend the time to properly diagnose your problem. Have you ever had an ultrasound to see what's going on in your uterus? Because if not then that's the first problem. You need to find a doctor who will help you because bleeding for that long is very unhealthy and could lead to severe anemia. Don't get to the point where you'll need blood transfusions. Get a CBC done to find out where your hemoglobin level is now and start taking iron supplements with Vitamin C and get back to the doctor to force them to find out what's wrong.

obgyn
I have had almost every test they can do on me and everything is coming out negative. The only thing they can tell me is my hormones are unbalance.
