    Long lasting period
    I have had my period now for longer than 3 weeks. I am on the contraceptive pill and started taking this after a week of my period. I take it every day at around the same time and haven't missed it once. I also have quite a sharp pain in my side near my right hip don't know if this is anything to do with it please give me some answers!! Thanks x

    You need to go to your doctor. Your doctor may need to re-evaluate what pill s/he put you on as well as do some blood tests to see if you are anemic.

    Please make an appointment today.
