Specializes in Phlebology

URI?: I am not sure what your question is. If you continue to have cycles lasting longer than 7 days, the bleeding may well be from the fibroids. Consultations with an ob/gyn and an interventional radiologist with expertise in uterine embolization may help you find some answers.
