Prolonged bleeding for over a month, GP says to wait for an ultrasound. Should I be worried?
Hi everyone,
I’m a 27-year-old woman and I’m looking for some advice because I’m starting to get really worried.
My bleeding has been all over the place for the past month.
**26 May:** My period started.
It lasted for **12 days**, which is much longer than normal for me.
I then had about a **5-day break**.
After that, I started **light spotting**.
Around **5 days later**, I started bleeding heavily again like a proper period on **23 June**.
That period has only just finished a couple of days ago, but now I’ve started **spotting again** with fresh red blood.
So it feels like I’ve been bleeding or spotting on and off for over a month.
I’ve seen my GP, and they’ve arranged an ultrasound, but they’ve basically told me to wait for the appointment and theres nothing they can do. I’m worried because the waiting list could be quite long.
I’ve also been experiencing:
Headaches.
Lower /middle back pain.
Feeling tired and drained.
