Q: I had my second child about 11 months ago. And since then i have been having bleeding non-stop.

My doctor doesn't seem to be concerned but i'm sick of being on a constant period. Not to mention i'm anemic now from low iron. He just recomended taking iron supplements. But i want to know why and how to stop this 'bloody' nightmare.

It sounds like you should think about going to a different doctor. There is no way to explain or tell you what is happening without a thorough pelvic exam and doing any tests necessary.

Or you should demand to know why you are bleeding and have been for that long. Also request you be tested for anemia and treated, if necessary.
