A member asked:
I have been in my period since october 6th, it's been 18 days. what might have caused it, and can i stop it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's not your period: Vaginal bleeding this long is not due to normal menstruation. There are many possible causes, some of them serious, and any abnormal or unexplained vaginal bleeding should be professionally evaluated. See your doctor ASAP, preferably in the next day or two. Good luck!
