What Causes Abnormally Heavy Vaginal Bleeding And Clotting?

I have been experiencing abnormally heavy vaginal bleeding and clotting for 13 days now. before this I had light spotting that lasted up to 11 days at a time over the course of 3 months with only a few days of no bleeding in between. I seen a nurse at my local hospital and she prescribed me birth control without any initial testing. im just wondering if I should just take the pills or if I should receive a second opinion as something more serious could be going on.

you need further check up of course. Sonography is needed. cause of vaginal heavy bleeding needs to be find out. As you have not mentioned your age so I can not give you most probable reason but yes something more serious could be going on
