Brief Answer:
Problem needs evaluation.
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Sorry for the long delay in my response.
Thanks for the detailed information.
With your information 15 days bleeding is most likely due to hormonal disturbances and needs evaluation to rule out the cause, for which you have to consult a Gynecologist and get yourself examined and investigation done like ultrasound pelvis and she gives hormones to control bleeding along with it you have to take haemostatic and iron supplements.
The prolonged period bleeding can be due hormonal changes,thyroid disorder, PCOD, infection and fibroid.
In your case yellow discharge is not associated with itching and foul smell,so chances of infection is less likely.
Hope found useful.
Good luck.
