How To Stop Prolonged Menstrual Bleeding?
hello, I ve been on my period now for 7 days, and today I ve started to come off it, but when I went to the toilet about 5/10 minutes ago, my urine was fine but when I wiped, loads of blood was on it, like as if I just started my period again because when I start I come on really heavily, I m also on the pill if that helps with anything, I m just wondering, what can I do to help stop this?

Hello,
Prolonged menstrual bleeding is an expected side effect of birth control pills. The bleeding will subside in a few days. There is nothing to worried about at this point.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
