Hello Doctor,
I have been experiencing prolonged periods for the past month. The bleeding hasn’t stopped as it normally would, and I’m feeling concerned. It’s not extremely heavy, but it’s lasting much longer than usual. I don’t have severe pain, but I do feel more tired than normal. Could this be a hormonal issue, or should I be worried about something more serious? What could be causing this, and what should I do next?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Prolonged periods lasting a month could be due to various factors, such as hormonal imbalances, fibroids, or polyps. It's important to see a doctor for a physical exam and possibly an ultrasound to identify the cause. Treatment depends on the underlying issue and may include hormonal therapy or other interventions. It’s also crucial to address this to prevent complications like anemia.
Thanks
