What Causes Menstrual Periods To Last More Than 24 Days?

I ve been on my period for 24 days straight and counting and it s really scaring me. I just quit my old job for a new and better one so I m thinking the transition might have something to do with it? I just turned 21 in November and I ve alwAys had slight irregular periods but it has never lasted this long

Hello,

I don't think this much bleeding has emotional or stress origin.

You need medical attention soon in order not to suffer from anemia later.

You should do a total blood count and platelets count and also coagulation factors measures.

Also, you can take Primolut in order to help period to stop.

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

Regards,
