go 2 da doc. Ur period should last for 5-7 days at the most. Something is wrong. If their is any pain in ur belly, then go ova there NOW. If there is no pain, and u are just worried, call now, and get the soonest apointmet available. No worries, just check 2 be sure every thing is fine and dandy. Good Luck!!

Get yourself to a doctor first thing Monday am. Your Mom is wise to advise you against tampon use, not knowing the cause of your bleeding. It could be fibroids, ovarian cysts, or something else altogether. Please get yourself checked before you become ill from loss of blood. If you have any birth control left, you may want to start another cycle of pills just to see if that will stop or decrease your period. Good luck.

you didnt say how old are you or your history but dont procrastinate. You definitely need a Gyne checkup to determine the cause, You might lose too much blood that you will weaken and need a transfusion. You will be ordered a transvaginal ultrasound to see whats wrong with your plumbing among others. A fibroid is the least of your problems. Go now!!!

Do go to the doctor because that does sound like a fibroid. I know of several women who did exactly like you're doing and they all had fibroids to.

It sounds like fibroids. With the amount you are bleeding you need to see the doctor very very soon. Don't wait, call as soon as the Dr. office is open.

Forget going to the OBGYN. You need to go to the emergency room now. You could have some internal bleeding. You will more than likely need to get a emergency blood transfusion.

holy crap, how stupid is that! Did it not occur to either you or your mother to get you to a doctor!???? You could get seriously sick after having your period for that long! It might be fibroids or horomones or whatever, but in any case you need to have a professional opinion NOW.

I pass for the same in my case I had ovarian cyst and high hormonal level. The doctor gave me progesterone(I believe) and after 5 days the period stop.

I had the exact same dilemma,the doc had to put me in stronger contraceptive pills b'cause the hormone levels in the previous ones were too low/weak for me.go to your gp,you may have to be put on something to make the period stop

You may have fibroids which can cause heavy bleeding or ovarian cysts. Either way it shouldn't be ignored. Please schedule a pelvic exam.
Good luck
