I am Just wondering why my period has been on for almost 2 months now? What can that be from and should I worry?

Are you on birth control or hormone therapy? What is your regular cycle like, prior to the past few months? Are you usually very regular? Also, have you been pregnant or given birth recently? Are you sexually active? How old are you and when did you start having periods?

You have been on your period for 2 full months? It's time to see a doctor. You need to find out why you have been on so long and get checked to see whether you are anemic.

Hello peggyhill. Thank you for responding! I am 20 years old and I cnnot remember when my period was regular, I 1st got it when I was about 12. I am sexually active, (married) And I've never been pregnant. Do you think sex while I'm bleeding can affect it?
Prettime.

Some symptoms of anemia are lethargy, easily fatigued and a loss of energy... shortness of breath and headache that happens particularly with exercise... rapid heartbeat, again particularly with exercise... difficulty concentrating... dizziness... pale skin... leg cramps and insomnia.

Are you on any form of birth control whatsoever?
