Please call your Gyn: Heavy and/or prolonged menstrual bleeding is a common occurrence. In most cases it is due to hormonal changes and there is nothing physically wrong with the reproductive system. This is called Dysfunctional uterine bleeding. Less commonly a number of other conditions may be responsible.
