Prolonged Period: When you have a prolonged period this indicates fluctuating levels of estrogen and progesterone in your body.For a regular period you have a steady increase you peak and right after your hormone level drops you get a period. Then your hormone levels rise again to start another cycle. To help stop your period, I usually give a progesterone pill called provera (medroxyprogesterone) for 5 day which stops the period.
