General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Prolonged vaginal bleeding is commonly a side effect of oral CP. Since your wife has been using it for a long time she is now having hormonal problems. Get her clinically examined by a gynecologist, it will be better for her to discontinue oral contraception for a while. Clinical examination and history will help to exclude organic causes of bleeding.

She will have to go through a targeted laboratory evaluation and imaging tests. Pregnancy and the misuse of OCPs are frequent causes of abnormal uterine bleeding. Her treatment will depend on the report of the test obtained & clinical evaluation.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
