What Causes Heavy Menstrual Bleeding?
I m on my second menstrual cycle for this month. The first one began on the 14th of April and ended the 20th of April. This second one began the 27th of April and I m still on it. It s a bright red and I m bleeding heavy and I m having large blood clots. There s no way I can be pregnant because I ve had a tubal for 12 yesrs, but I m very concerned. Please help

Hi,
You should do further investigations for your case. Thyroid problem, polyp, ovarian cause, endometriosis, fibroid like cause can present with such symptoms.
Your pelvic examination and pelvic ultrasound need to be done for primary work up.
Underlying cause-specific treatment should be a priority.
I suggest you consult a gynaecologist for an examination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
