Persistent Heavy Bleeding After Menopause: Causes & Solutions

Question
I am nearly 57 years old, I am still having periods and HEAVY bleeding. I went to gyn. which put me on provera to slow the bleeding, it did the flow but lasts twice as long. Nothing wrong inside all has been checked. I have taken this for six months now and I have done nothing but slow the flow, I have hair growing on my arms and legs again and I take Efferoxer xr and I could now unscrew your head and screw it back on. I have a 30 year old handicapped child, lot of lifting, but I am drianed from bleeding taking care of him, and blaming my hubsand for everything which it is not his fault. If this dr. doesn't decide what to do next month, I will not return, the bleeding is old now. I bled for 19 days last month took the pill from the first to 12th of everymonth and started again in April 12th and still going bright red. What should I have done, or do I have a quack.

Answer
While it is outside of my area of expertise to comment on the medical reasons why you are experiencing heavy, continual bleeding, it is certainly not normal, and is taking a heavy toll on the quality of your life. If the doctor you are seeing now can not solve this problem, then it is time to get another doctor.
