It is obvious you need to see a gynecologist. A month of spotting is clearly indicating that something’s wrong. It doesn’t necessarily mean that it is extremely serious but it does mean that you should have it checked.
There are many things that could be causing spotting and they include both “female” problems as well as other medical problems.
For example, a thyroid disorder could be messing with your periods as well as any other systemic disease such as diabetes.
As for the “female” problems, you could be having troubles with hormonal imbalance, you could have a vaginal infection (including STD), you could have developed cysts on ovaries, fibroids in the uterus, polyps on the cervix or inside the uterus, endometriosis, or you could be approaching menopause. As you can see, there is a wide range of possibilities and many of them are age-dependant.
The only way to find out what the problem may be is to contact your gynecologist. |
