Hi there
Welcome to HCM
Since you are having prolonged bleeding it's important that you see your doctor.
you need to take tranexemic acid 500 mg to stop the bleeding. next further evaluation if the cause of prolonged bleeding needs to be done with ultrasound and blood tests.
Please do them .
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your answer. I have done ultra sound and blood test when I visited my doctor 3 months back. Results are polycystic ovaries, no thyroid, no sugar, no prolactin problem. Do I have to repeat the test? Also do I need to be concerned?
Brief Answer:
this prolonged bleeding is due to PCOS
Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
Since you have done the work up of Pcos just 3 months back do not worry. Excessive and irregular bleeding is common in Pcos.
You will need to repeat the blood test and ultrasound to know if it's got worse. If the ultrasound shows a normal endometrial lining then your doctor can prescribe you medications to get your bleeding to stop.
Don't worry too much. With proper diet exercise and medication PCOS can definitely be controlled.
