Continuous period for 3 months or more

I would not waste my time with a general practitioner if I were you. You need to go to a Gyn. I was on my period for over a year and finally bit the bullet and went. Turns out, I was about two days away from having to have blood transfusions I had lost so much blood. This is most likely why you are so tired, is due to the blood loss. Also, was the ultrasound trans vaginal? That's is how they found my problem. This condition is not something you want to mess around with...you need to see a specialist.

I know that it has been awhile since you last posted but I do want to support what klisaj89 has posted because it is accurate. klisaj89 can you talk a little more about your experience so that we can hear more about what happened? I would like to know just to benefit from the knowledge of your experiences...thanks!

Alright, well I bled for two and a half years with only short breaks in the first two years. The last six months, I bled constantly and the bleeding increased. In the last two months, I was going through about five super plus tampons in an hour! I finally decided I should go to the dr. when I was walking up a slight hill to get to my car and nearly passed out. On this hill that I walk up almost every day with no problem, I couldn't breath and my head was pounding. I called a gyn. and they scheduled an emergency appointment for the next morning. I went in and the doc. asked me a bunch of questions, performed a pelvic exam, and took the little blood I had left for labs. When they were having trouble drawing blood, that's when he informed me that I was a couple days away from needing blood transfusions. I was sent home with a huge cardboard box of iron pills as well as a prescription for a progesterone pill to stop the bleeding. After about a week, the bleeding stopped completely. The next week I went back in for a trans vaginal ultrasound which is when they found the cysts on my ovaries which were screwing up my hormones which caused the bleeding. It doesn't require surgery, I just have to take birth control pills now to regulate hormones and hopefully shrink the cysts. The condition is called Polycystic Ovary Syndrome; this condition is actually very common, however, many woman have the opposite effect as I and do not bleed at all.

I feel really sorry for what you have gone through, My fiancee is experiencing the same i guess she is diagnosed with PCOS and have been bleeding since 6 months...she got some hormone shot last month and doctor adviced to come back again after 3 months........I am really worried about her.....I know sex would be rare with her after marriage and how about the baby? Will we be able to bear one? ........I wish we had a normal life...........I cant think of her in so much pain........any solution with you other than progesterone? she dont want to take that.

I am going through a similar situation my period has been on since new years eve and has been off for probably a month this entire year(it is now October). got and internal and external sonogram and found nothing took bunch of blood work test all came back normal. put me on the depo shot and is not working. I don't know what to do also have severe anemia. I just want it go off. :(

Hi all Even I have same problem since 1 year now. After marriage I am facing issue with PCOD. In the begging I use get periods after every 2 months. I had homeopathic medicine for some time it worked but then I started beading more in a month. Then I stopped those medicine. Now having Ayurvedaic medicine. Waiting to get it cure... however I'm still bleeding ..... don't want to take alopatic medicine due to side effects ... kindly suggest what can be done.
