First 13-week Late Period,then Bleeding For 15 Days And More
Posted: 10-09-05 07:00am

Hi.

I posted before about my 13-week late period, after having a regular period for many years. Just when I decided to go see a doctor I got my period on september 25th.I have been bleeding up untill now which is the 9th, about 15 days and no sign of stopping. The bleeding isn't very heavy or light but it is lighter than usual, but still bleeding. Should I go see a doctor, or is a period this long normal?
Also, the color of the blood is differnt than usual, it is not really red, almost brown and old looking?!!
Please advise.

Thanks

ps i'm 19 and not sexually active if that makes a differnce in the answer.

Hello, I think you have hormonal imbalance, you have to see your doctor so that she can give you medications.

Thanks for answering. I did go and check with my doc and she gave me meds to stop my period which continued for 18 days!! I also has some blood tests done and i'm going to have a cat scan in a week. I'm very nervous waiting for the results of the tests and stuff.
Again thanks for answering.
Cheers

Hi there,
just wanted to let you know what happened.
The scan was fine, everything normal.All hormones fine except prolactin was quite high. The doc gave me more meds to stop my period, for two cycles and then said to see her again.But she made me have another test to check prolactin again to see if its still high, she said it could be nothing but it also could be somthing to do with the brain.A swelling or something. I'm not sure. Anyways, just wanted to let you in on what happened.

Cheers,
em

ps she told me not to touch my breasts too much.. Lol.. I guess it makes the prolatin hormone higher or something.
