Continued Period For 2 Weeks With Heavy Flow. History Of Restarting Birth Control Pills. Help
I've been on my period for 14 days? It was a few days late. My periods usually last 4-5 days. I was on birth control for about a year, stopped in march, and just restarted this month. I'm sure the 14 day period is a result of the pill, but this has never happened with the pill before, and my flow keeps getting heavier and shows no sign of stopping? Please help!

Hi,
I'm Dr Gorai.
What birth control pill you are using?
Have you started the same thing?
Its v.very important as they may be of various types.
Bleeding for 14 days is not good.
Now you can take tab Trapic- Mf twice daily for 2 days
Have an ultrasound of lower abdomen and urine for pregnancy test.
With the two test result you consult your gynaecologist.
