Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this profuse bleeding. If investigations have not shown a possible cause, then it is likely a hormonal problem or dysfunctional uterine bleeding. The pills should be prescribed for at least 3months before trying to wean you off. This often corrects the problem.

I hope this addresses your query fully. Feel free to ask for clarifications and more information if need be. I wish you well. Thanks for utilizing our services, we very much appreciate it.
