My daughter is almost 15 years old and has extremely heavy periods that make her miss school for 5 days each month. She has tried two different birth control pills and a hormone rod implant, but her periods remain heavy and constant. She also has generalized anxiety disorder, scoliosis, and acne. What could be causing her heavy periods and what other solutions can be considered?

I have been experiencing severe bladder pain since an appendectomy 3 weeks ago. I recently had a gush of bloody discharge after urinating. I have had a complete hysterectomy, so no female organs are present. The pain is sharp and achy. I am 36 years old and currently taking cylexa. What could be causing these symptoms and what treatment options are available?
