You : You need to see your gynecologist. This is not normal and can mean a variety of things. You could have uterine fibroids (benign tumors of the uterus), endometrial hyperplasia (thickening of the uterine wall) pregnancy also needs to be ruled out. If you recently started or changed birth control that could be a factor. You need to see your doctor for a complete history and physical, and diagnostic testing (pap smear if due, possibly pelvic ultrasound, and/or endometrial biopsy). Best of luck.
