HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It would be best for you to see your gynecologist for an assessment because this length of bleeding is too long and the cause needs to be determined.
This would require a thorough history and physical examination focusing on the abdomen and pelvis.
Imaging such as ultrasound would be needed to a look at the uterus.
In the majority of cases, the symptoms are due to benign causes (non cancerous changes) such as fibroids , infection, endometriosis, polyps, abnormal hormone levels.
I hope this helps
