What Causes Extended Periods With Heavy Bleeding?

My period was two weeks late, when it started it was normal, dark red with some clots and it lasted about 5 days and started to stop then I started gushing bright red blood, it has been bright red for 4 days now, I go through a tampon about every hour, sometimes when I pull the tampon out there is blood that just drips into the toilet inbetween inserting the new one. There is no pain, a little discomfort when a blood clot is passing. My period is going on 9 days now.

Dear member,
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic.
When the periods Are delayed there will be painless heavy flow. Please check for pregnancy. If negative then take tab pause -Mf thrice a day to reduce the bleeding.
Thanks
