I've had my period for almost three weeks, with some days being heavy and others light, and there is clotting. I am not using contraceptives, my last period began on June 15th, and I am on prescriptions for anxiety, depression, allergies, and blood pressure. I have been under stress. What could be causing this prolonged and irregular bleeding, and what should I do about it?

I am considering a partial hysterectomy due to severe periods, anemia, and two 5cm fibroids. My doctor recommended an ablation, but my surgeon insists on tying my tubes or my husband's vasectomy before proceeding. I'm hesitant about the hysterectomy. What other options or recommendations do you have?

I have had an IUD for about 4 years and have never had periods or spotting, but suddenly started bleeding. The bleeding started dark brown and turned red, and I've been experiencing cramping for the past 14 hours. I haven't had recent sexual activity or trauma, and there's no unusual discharge or odor. What could be causing this sudden bleeding, and is it normal?
