What Does Prolonged Menstrual Bleeding Indicate?

Okay so I have a verry personnel question or concern really... I have pcos and I have not had my period for 2 whole years but now since 3 weeks ago i started having my period again but it s more just spotting then it was regular but I m still on my period and it s been 3 weeks now ... I have not gone and got it checked out because I don t have insurance. Should I be worried? Or does this mean i am getting back to normal? Also... i have took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It may signal that your period will be returning but in general, it should not last this long.

Medication may be needed to stop the bleeding. Prolonged bleeding would be associated with a risk of a low blood count (hemoglobin-anemia).

I hope this helps
