For the past several years, I have been bleeding (like a period) non-stop. Occasionally it would stop for a few days, but then it would start right back up again. The puzzling thing is that I NEVER have ANY pain, any cramps, or any discomfort what-so-ever!! I have been to more doctors than I can count on both hands and they are stumped! I have been told so many things I cant even remember them all!!
Please help!!! I'll take any advice!!!

Try taking IRON, VITAMIN C and BLUE COHASH... NOT black cohash. They are 2 very different herbs. That is what I did. I began getting periods every 2 weeks that lasted 10 days or more shortly after beginning a new kind of birth control pill. Even after I stopped, the bleeding didn't. I went to the doctor. I was tested for every cancer and STD known to man. All my tests came back normal. They couldn't give me a definite answer other than that is was "probably hormone related." But these helped me. Now, I'm back to normal, and have been for 4 years. I even had a baby after that with no problems.
Most of what I've found on the web suggests that constant bleeding like that is either hormone related, usually having to do with menopause, or cancer/polyp related.
Here is some information from various websites about different possible causes you may find interesting:

I had the same exact problem for about six years yes the pill could help stop the bleeding but not stop the problem, then I couldn't walk more than four steps with out stopping to breath my heart beat was ten times its usual beat and finally an older male doctor had me transported in a ambulance to the hospital I had a 4.2 blood level I was almost dead, so I had a blood transfusion I was better but the bleeding didn't stop after three more blood transfusions in less than three months they finally had my uterus removed. I feel like new I will never bleed again and I feel alive. The doctors said if I didn't have the blood transfusion I could get a blood cloth go to the brain and die. So be care full or drive your self to the hospital and tell them you cant handle the bleeding anymore. Good luck

From the symptoms you are describing the only possible diagnosis that come to mind are:
1. Thrombocytopenia- Low platelet counts- is there history of hemophillia in the family? Are you on blood thining agents (ie warfarin) Have you been or too excessive amounts of aspirin?
2. A possible sinus or fissure had formed (though usually these are painful and you'd know).
3. Maybe you are engaging in too rough intercourse, or self pleasuring toys (not saying you do, but this is just one of the four possibilities that come to mind).
4. A tumor which can be either benign or malignant... There are cases in which patients have been known to have pelvic tumors and not have any pain whatsoever.
Again there may be more possibilities, but these are what comes to mind at this moment... My suggestion is if you hadn't done so yet is to get a CBC (complete blood count) test done and if that comes negative, an MRI... usually if there are cases of tumors, "tumor markers" can be found in the blood test. Hope I shed some light and get well soon.

See a board-certified gynecologist and inquire about a hysterectomy.
You are responsible for your own health. Keep a calendar of how often this occurs and what the flow rate is. Take a list of questions with you to the doctor's office and write down the answers. Get an ultrasound done. If that gynecologist can't give you a diagnosis, see one that specializes in oncology (cancer).

You haven't been to enough doctors. The ones you have been to obviously don't know anything. Go to a good doctor who actually remembers what he learnt in the seven years he spent at university. Or get a referral to a specialist.
Immediately.

You need to tell one of those many doctors to send you to a specialist. Thats ridiculous!
