i am writing this as i had bled through an overnight maxi pad and through my underwear in 2 hours. i have had my period now for 5 and a half weeks. i have been to several doctors about this and simply all they have done is make sure i’m not dying and my hemoglobin levels are fine and put me on birth control. i’ve been taking the birth control and nothing is working. doctors will not take you seriously as a woman. it also doesn’t help that i am overweight so it’s either i am a woman or i am fat. i am sick of it. can i please get a doctor to take me seriously and actually listen to my concerns and do something for me than simply waiting for this to go away on its own
