Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
It is abnormal to have menstrual bleeding continuously for a month. You must consult a gynecologist immediately and get investigated in detail. An ultrasound scan of your pelvis may be needed to know if you have any structural abnormalities. Also you must get your blood tested for hemoglobin level and take good nutrition and iron and folic acid supplements if you have anemia and weakness.
