A member asked:

What could be causing this period that lasts several months?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Many causes: There is a wide range of causes for abnormal uterine bleeding in your age group. Although unlikely, the most important cause to rule out is cancer. I would see your doctor for further evaluation.
