Hello,

I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns about excessive blood flow.

Following is my reply:

1. You will have get an ultrasound scan done to diagnose why there is so much bleeding that is not controlled by primolut.

2. There is possibility of fibroid or polyp in uterus which are causing such bleeding which has to be identified. Hence please get Ultrasound scan done soon.

3. Please send ultrasound scan which will help me to identify the problem and advice you accordingly.

I hope your doubt is clarified. Let me know if you wish any other information.
