What causes some one to bleed for a month straight?
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?
Hi,
Not sure if this thread is still running but I'll give it a shot. 26 year old Female with Lupus. I've had irregular bleeding (2 periods a month) since April. Blood work, Pap smear & ultrasound all came back normal. He said a very tiny cyst on the left ovary but not anything that would be causing this (so he thinks). Dr wants me to get an IUD since lupus patients can't go on birth control to stop the bleeding. I don't want an IUD..I'm afraid for future pregnancy risks. In October I bled (heavily) every day but 3. Still going in November. I made myself an appointment at a specialist in NYC I go in 2 weeks, and am very nervous. My dr and family and friends are claiming this is hormonal....hormonal or not it's really interfering in my life and needs to stop! Any other autoimmune patients on here? Or any advice would be amazing, thank you!

Has anyone on here gotten back any results they can share???? I too am experiencing a problem of bleeding for the past 20 days now. I am 44 and have never had an irregular or prolonged period before. I feel worried even though it might just be periomenopause. I keep getting Uterine cancer as a result of my online search of my symptoms.

Did you ever find an answer?
Did they find out what was going on? I am experiencing the same.
I'm 35, I have 3 kids and had my tubes tied 10 years ago after the birth of my last child...I was told by my doctor I can NOT take birth control or hormones due to my high risk of blood clots... I have been having the same problem off and on for 4 months it started with me getting my period that lasts 7 days i would get a week off then it would come back for a week for 3 months with this cycle. Now I have had it for 14 days straight and still have it, i went to the doctor she did a urine test which came back normal, my pap came back normal. she did blood work found out I am extremely anemic due to so much blood loss, and I have an appointment for a non-ob pelvic ultrasound and a transvaginal ultrasound coming up this tuesday... I'm very worried. I will keep you posted when the results come in.
