What Causes Heavy Menstrual Bleeding?
I have a question I had my period since the 17th of November and it s been havy. There have been big blood cots. There has been one day I had no bleeding. Then that night it came and it was bam here it is. Usually it s only 5 sometimes 7 days. I have had this in the past but they can t find out or they don t want to take time to find out what s going on! Sometime I do have low iron. I m just 30 years old and I m about to ask me own doctor to remove my uterus. It s getting that bad. I want to go to my doctor and tell them let s run this test or lets try this or lets do this
