Suggest Treatment For A Prolonged And Smelly Menstrual Period

My period is light red, smelly and kind of sticky. My period has a consistent flow for over a month. I have been to the doctor however nothing is able to stop it. I have been on birth control and some other medication, however they calm it down a bit but it does not stop it completely.

Hi,

You can get a vaginal swab to rule out conditions like yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis, which can cause similar symptoms.

If symptoms persist, you can consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
