I'm really glad I found this place. I've been bleeding for 2 years straight. I get maybe 1 light day once in a blue moon. Literally no sex in my relationship. I've been to doctors and they try to blame it on my weight. Which I know is a lot of bull. I've seen girls bigger than me and they have normal periods. I wish i could find out what is going on. I have facial hair growth and i stay tired all the time. Nothing I've tried has worked and birth control makes it worse.

Wow, I thought I was the only one who had this problem! I never imagined that there were so many dealing with this. I think you all are right your doctors may be missing something and you may want to get a second opinion. I went to the doctor and they did tests and found fibroids, but nothing has been done about it yet. If I were you all I would see if you could find another physician to evaluate you.

No, I have not, but it is something to look into.

Well I have had this for 22 years. I've been on everything here spoken of. No results what does work is the acid pills I had dnc to lessen the thickness of uterus I guess I now have poly cystic p c o s. The dnc will stop most bleeding for up to year the bills give you like 4 months relief. The pill some relief. However no one knows why. One day someone will care enough about us.

Hey Julina! Did you ever figure out what was wrong? Did the bleeding stop? I'm responding to you bc you mentions it started after having your second child...same here. I've literally been spotting daily for 17 months now. Still no regular period!

I also have been going through the exact same thing :( for over 2 years now I have had constant heavy bleeding and it's caused a damper on my life...I have little to no energy, I have anemia due to it so I have dizzy/faint spells a lot...I don't eat nearly as much as I used to, I'm on the heavier side but I have always been heavy my entire life..doctors haven't done anything for me :( I just want my life back...

I am sorry all of you are struggling with this too, but it is also a relief to know others understand. My periods were like clockwork my whole life. I hit 40. Last January I had no period, and then I have had my period for 8 months. It goes away for a few days (once it went away for 30 blessed days and I felt like a new creature!) but it comes back. Sometimes the clots are enormous and scary. Other times they look like seaweed...like lace or even like ink. Then sometimes the bleeding comes out in one gush, or it's copious amounts of thin red blood. Once during the worst season of it, matter came out as well that looked like Sea Coral made of flesh. It's like the constant unwelcome companion. I'm so tired of the crinkle of paper whilst unwrapping yet another super huge pad...or the chaffing from constantly wearing pads. Standing up and feeling like I wet myself, suspense and dread before each bathroom visit, weakness and fatigue, mood swings, becoming more withdrawn and isolated...it's all very difficult. I'm so sorry to those of you who have had this go on for years. May the Lord heal us all.

Hello everyone, I'm 24 an I've been bleeding pretty much constant apart from when pregnant with 2 kids since I was 15 so over all I'd say I've had a good solid 5 years of my life bleeding, after around 20 sti test they finally realised something was wrong any way to cut a long story short I had a laparoscopy i have polycistic ovaries an endrometriosis which took till I was 21 to manage to persuade them to check as that is the only way, so beg for it although nothing has worked an I've now come to terms with that the chances are it may work for you. Good luck

I had endometriosis it was a big part of my problem drs tried all the try this try thst before finally an exploratory surgery and later a laser surgery it may not be the problem but if it is your dr should be considering more invasive options . Im actually going tgrough this chat discussion bc my 18 yr old daughter has been blerding for over a year she has went to a gyn a few times and he gave her hormone pills and wished her well both times so i talked to our pcp who is sending ger to a specialist he mentioned possible surgery so naturally we're very concerned her problems and my history is just a bad combination im hoping to come across something to ease her and my mind mostly hers im gonna worry regardless but for her tge stress from worry alone can make any problem worse

Hi all. At least you guys talking 1 to 5 years the most. I have been like that my entire life. I'm 33 years now. This stated when I first got my periods. I used injections to control my cycle it would help sometimes but not always. I went to all sorts of gynaecologist and they all told me I can't have kids until I was introduced to Dr khambha. He game me some pills I can't remember and told me to take them for 3 days and after have sex with my husband. 2 months later I was pregnant with a baby girl. She is 7 years old now.after I gave birth my cycle is still the same non stop bleeding for days. I stopped all those injections now. I learned to just live with it.

But why should we live with it it's not fair I'm starting northisterone for the 12th time today I've looked through my records an 5 years was no where near right it's been ongoing for 10 so it's a joke how can they tell a girl at 15 that bleeding for a year was okay but I believed them an have since have you tried the menopause injections I had them when I was 19 apparently they have a high success rate I didn't work for me but nothing has anyway I'm going to see the consultant next week about having a hysterectomy at the age of 24 because I'm well an truly fed up no one helps they just fob me off with different pill well screw the pills I just want the whole lot gone

Hi everyone, Daisy here. I had been having normal periods for just over a year, but this past year it's been off. It started by going back to once every two months and now I've been bleeding for the past 10 days. Not heavy blood but the brown light flow. the tablets I suggested are now very hard to come across. I don't know why, and to buy a packet it's £40 which is INSANE. I managed to find a lower dose on Ebay and got two months supply for £16 but still.

I'm on a journey for weight loss to see if it does help this damn issue. I really do think that if by next year it's not sorted, I'll ask to have it removed. I'll be 30 by then.
