Constant Bleeding...Help?
I'm a bit over weight and ever since I started my period at age 12 or 13 it has been irregular. I would either have it for three days and then not again for a few months, but now, I started my period about a month and a half ago. I'm 19. a virgin. and scared to death of being messed with in my private area by a doctor. Not sure what I should do or what's causing the bleeding for the month and a half constantly.
Thanks. I'm trying to did a doctor right now. The bleeding has lightened but still hasn't stopped. I think I'm scared of going because of bad news I think I'll hear like if I won't be able to have children. Thank you though for responding.

Hello,
This bleeding needs evaluation. Excessive amount or duration of menstrual flow, at more or less regular intervals is called menorrhagia.Sometimes it is associated with polymenorrhea(Frequent flow, cycles of ≤21 days)Causes of menorrhagia are Hypothyroidism, Endometrial proliferation or hyperplasia like ovarian tumor and polycystic ovarian disease,endometrial polyps and neoplasia,endometriosis,fibroids and uterine sarcomas.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
