Exclamation Period was late now not stopping - December 5th 2011, 08:49 PM

Hello,

my period was 2 1/2 weeks late and then it started and now it's been going for 3 weeks and pretty heavy and my period has NEVER been late, ever. And I made an appointment to see a doctor but I did some research on my own of similar cases and some say miscarriage? is that possible? I mean I have did have sex without a condom about 2 months ago I would say. I knew the risk and was prepared for what could happen and if it did but not this. help?

Go to a local clinic that can get you in on a walk-in basis. Even if it is a miscarriage, this kind of bleeding is not normal. Or go to an emergency room. Be prepared to need a parent present, but this depends on your state laws.

Hey there, I'm sorry you're so worried and there's a possibility that you're miscarrying. I hope it all gets sorted out for you. I have had two miscarriages so I know how it feels, dear. I'm here if you need someone to talk with about this if you did indeed had a miscarriage. Take care of yourself. <3

I'm glad you've made an appointment with your doctor to have this figured out. If you were pregnant, this definitely seems like an abortion, but the fact that you've been bleeding for nearly 3 weeks is a cause for concern. If you did indeed miscarry, doctors usually refer or give you ways to cope with the loss.

Whatever the outcome, I hope you're okay.

Yes, it could be a miscarriage but if you're about 3 weeks late, if a woman is late with her period she may bleed more as well, or so I'm told. It's a lot like a bank as a doctor told me. If your body doesn't make a deposit it will end up building up and you'll bleed more.

I don't think it's a miscarriage as the bleeding usually doesn't last so long. I've also read that it's possible for you to have a heavy and longer period if you miss one or are late. But 3 weeks is still a bit much.

Just try to relax dear. Don't think the worst. You'll find out soon what is going on. It may be something simple. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk.
