Period won’t stop
I’m 16 and I started my period the gist of the month was on it for maybe 4 or 5 days.. didn’t think anything of it. I stopped on the 5 day and wasnts bleeding for 4 days and then I started again and have been on it for 11 days now. What should I do

Take some iron (get the kind that dissolves easily if you can), and call your ob/gyn or your doctor for an appointment. You're pretty young to have a fibroid, which is one thing that can cause bleeding that continues. Another is an incomplete miscarriage -- are you sexually active? In any case, see your doc.

Yes I am sexually active
Time to see your doc. When I miscarried twins, some of the tissue remained in my uterus, and I bled lightly for over a month before they gave me some misoprostal to knock it out. You could be experiencing an early miscarriage or chemical pregnancy.
