Heavy period 2 weeks now

Help! I'm a 32 yr old mom and Ive been on my period for almost two weeks now. I bleed through my tampon and pad within about an hour. I'm getting pretty fatigued now and... Dizziness and lightheaded... I cant even do normal household chorez without extreme exertion... I can't get to my observation for another week but I'm worried I'm not gonna make it another week... Any idea on what I should do?

Also, take iron and vitamin C. Get the most easily absorbed kind of iron (it will say on the bottle) and take it with the vitamin C every other day.

Hi, I'd call your ob/gyn. That sounds pretty extreme to be honest. Things that could be happening include that you actually got pregnant and are having a miscarriage situation? That you have an ovarian cyst that is passing (I did this and it felt like the worlds bloodiest, worst period ever). You could have a fibroid (I'd guess this one of the three). I would definitely call today to be seen by your doctor and they should work you in quickly. Any heavy bleeding over 7 days needs evaluation. Let us know what happens, okay?
