Sounds like menopause. I started three years ago-- I go for months without a period and then I have a period that seems to last forever and is very heavy. You should definitely see a gynecologist because they will want to check for any other underlying conditions. :)

Go get checked. I spent 3 myths with my unwanted till I washed rushed to the hospital with a stone. Not any fun.

The band dr said losing the weight probably caused it to stop and when she checked me felt that my exam did not indicate i was menopausle ( the ongyn) but next day i literally got my period. Lasted 2 weeks. Now its back 3 weeks later and really heavy. Very unlike the old ones. Sorry for TMI. Just freaking out. Cant leave the house. Crazy. Maybe its just because i didnt have it for so long?

Agree with others - see your doctor. Hope it gets figured out quickly and with little pain!!
