What causes some one to bleed for a month straight?

[pricej]

Ok I'm posting for a good friend who doesn't have internate access. i'm really worried and she doesn't seem to be. She's a 34 year old women with 3 kids. She hasn't stopped bleeding for a month straight. She says this is the first time it has ever happened to her. She made a oppt. with her doctor and all they would do was a urine test because her doctor will not exzamine while bleeding. Her urine test came back as a urinary track infection and she was put on meds. I told her she NEEDS to find another doctor. But she is hard headed and really likes her doctor. (She's had the same doctor for 15 years). what could cause one to bleed non stop like that. She says it varies from day to day from heavy to spotting, but back and forth. Does any one have any ideas?

Anything from PCOS to fibroids to hormones is what I was just told today. I'm 31 years old, have 2 kids, and had a tubal after my last one (3 years ago) and have been bleeding heavily for 25 days. Passing clots while going tovthe bathroom and being constantly fatigued is tough with a house full of boys! I'm on the hunt for more answers as this has ruined a lot of pants and underwear, and messing with our love life! Stay strong, ladies!

Not an answer but I am 30 years old.had a norm period my whole life,until past yr.first time I had it for 45 days...went to ER cuz I have no insurance.i got an ultrasound inside,and on the outside,an mri/catscan,and blood testing done and they found nothing!told me I needed to follow up w gyno. Which I couldn't do...
3 weeks later started bleeding again,this time going on 90 days non stop,mostly heavy,and I am passing blood clots every single time I pee.now i am getting dizzy spells,nauseated, and headaches every other day.Do I go to ER again???I do have endometriosis and interstitial cystitis...and my grandmother died of cervical cancer.i am starting to get worried :(

I'm in the same boat as you... Always haf normal and regulated periods, and a few months ago I was over 3 weeks late....thought that maybe I was pregnant (but had my tubes tied 3 years ago) and went for bloodwork. Definitely wasn't pregnant. Now, at 31, my period is going into day 26 very heavy flow and passing clots (big ones!) When going to the bathroom. My ob/gyn prescribed birth control and says it could be hormonal... Has anyone been given a straight answer about this??

While looking for help for an estrogen question I happened upon this thread.  You are so right, bleeding for a month is not normal.  I would try to get another opinion.
Good luck to everyone

I;m 26 I have one child, I'm asking for some advice. When I was 16 I started using the depo shot, and stopped when.I.was 19 than was on the birth.control patch found out I was allergic to it and than.found.out I was pregnant. After I had her I had the shot again and than.stopped treatments in 2014 because my husband to be and I have been trying.to conceive a baby but I have missed several periods because of the depo shot than in October I had spotting for a couple of days than it went to really heavy and that lasted about 20 days, I'm guessing that was a normal period to get excess blood.out of my system.but now I'm 2 weeks late for my period and I've been feeling flutters in my stomach constantly I try and get him to see if.he can feel them but he just looks at me like I'm crazy, could I be pregnant or is it just me wishing I am?

Hi, I'm a 35 yr old female have no children , in November 2015 I had my first long cycle lasting 12 days then off 2 and started back for another 14 days . Shortly afterwards a few weeks I had my first anxiety attack. now it is April 8, 2016 and ive been on my cycle since mar. 14, 2016. it started light like it just spotted about 5 days then heavy and then light and occasional spoting but it has been consistant. now I am heavy and its almost the turn around for my next cycle. tispast week I have had 3 anxiety attacks. its weird I'm not under stress mentally I suppose just my body possibly. I mean of course I'm concerned about the issue at hand. But no one seems to be able to tell me what is causing this. They say everything seems ok just have several cysts and they say that not big. Cannot seem to get a straight answer . But I don't care .....this is not normal!!! I'm am weak seem to be tired a lot and my stomach hurts everyday just about it. I'm am at my wits end and don't know what to do. Dear God help me.

Hi. Very similar symptoms. Would you like to chat?

Wow, I am only 28 and also presumed I was the only one. I’ve been bleeding for a month straight. I don't want to go in because 3yrs ago I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Now, I’m not ready to hear any more bad news from my Drs , at least not before I have a chance to hear the infinite amount of possibilities.  The onset of menopause sounds the most promising.

I don't know if this thread is still going but I had the same problem with the irregular cycles and was diagnosed some years back with polycystic ovarian syndrome. I recently had surgery on the 28th of September everything went well my Dr removed two very large cyst and a tumor from my ovaries. As of Oct 12 still today I have had bleeding from heavy to spotting and was told that I'm severely anemic so I hope this helps someone.
