Hi!
If you were my patient, I would be concerned that you may not be ovulating regularly, and that there may be a build up of tissue within the uterine lining. Another possibility is that you may have a polyp. I would probably order an ultrasound to investigate further. IF you simply have a thickening of the lining, that can be treated with a short course of progesterone. Taking progesterone every few months can prevent it from coming back.
I would strongly recommend checking with a gynecologist who can do some further testing and prescribe something for you. It sounds like you are bleeding more days than you are not!
Good luck!

Thank you for your feedback.
I think I will ask my MD for a referral to a gynecologist. You are right, I am bleeding and spotting more days than not, at least for the last year and a half. Luckily, I am not anemic.
Polyps, thickened lining, or nothing at all....either way, I would like to know.
Thanks
