  1. I am no specialist, but 3 weeks period seems to be like your body is very explicitly telling you to see a doctor.

  2. Hi. I am a physician. I am telling you to go see your physician. If you need to find help, call Planned Parenthood. They can see you or refer you.

    You need a full hormone panel and a pelvic to be clear on the cause of the bleeding.

    No matter the cause of the bleeding, it may be taking a toll. Do not ignore it.

    Call Monday and get seen.

    My best guess, having never seen you, is that the endometrial lining is thin and unstable due to the hormonal birth control. If that proves to be the case, we have some ways to deal with it.
