I gave birth six months ago and had my menstrual cycle return in November, which was normal but then stopped until the beginning of January when I started bleeding heavily and it hasn't stopped. I'm concerned since it's not easing up. I'm 31 years old and take prednisone, cellcept, and enalapril. I have Wegener's granulomatosis, an autoimmune disease, for which I received rituxan infusions in December. I'm sexually active with my husband and this is the first time I've had prolonged bleeding. I had abdominal cramps before the bleeding started but no other symptoms like nosebleeds, bleeding gums, bruises, blood in urine or stools, genital redness, bumps, sores, or urinary symptoms. The blood is bright red. What could be causing this and what should I do?
