Thread: and... still bleeding!

Hi all, I am new here, seeking a bit of help.
I started my period back in March, stopped for 1 week, then started again and stopped for about 3 days. So far now I'm on my fourth solid week! my pads are making me sore, tampons are making me even sorer, and I have no choice but to alternate them, to be as comfortable as possible!
I'm 37 years old, never had children, I have an active sex life, so far healthy and all, but for the blood. It is very light, almost spotting, to moderate on occasions. I have no cycle symptoms, but I'm super sensative instead of pain. (I suppose this is good) I do know this last 4 weeks makes me highly nymph-like. My husband is ok with it, just as worried as I am. I'm not in a position to see a dr at this time, no insurance, can't pay cash, and the area where I live I'm not exactly status for citizenship.
Someone told me to take IB profein to help stop it for a bit, but it does nothing! I have no bloating, no irritability, no pain! (except where pads have me raw!) I'm not on birth control, or anything, just over the counter pain meds for headaches, and back pain. (have a bad back) I have considered the possibility of pregnancy, except i have no symptoms for that either! my family history would suggest a possible pregnancy, as my mom and grandmother both (and as far back as we can remember) have had pragnancies start this way, in fact they bled the entire 9 months non stop.
But they also had pregnancy symptoms.
Cysts are common in my family, tho I have never had any! I have seen numerous GYN's they all told me in the past it was all stress, I live a now stress free life, (as stress free as you get when bleeding this long) My husband is very supportive.... Please help, I have prayed, and I have cried, I'm tired all the time, lack of energy, and increased appitite. what do I do, I just want it to stop for a while so I can heal!

i suggest you make an appointment with OB, do some check up. It sounds more like hormone imbalance to me. I'm experiencing long period now, already 2 weeks, and no sign to stop, mild cramping.. very annoying.. I am scared too, cried for couple days.. i will see my OB this Wed.
