Period/ birth control

[dearalexa.livejournal.com]

There has to be something wrong with me.  I've had my period for going on four weeks now.  It's terrible, it's coming out quickly and in clots and everything.  Just when I think it's done it starts back up again, and it's terribly painful.  No, I haven't had sex just in case anyone asks.  What are some possibilities?

Also, I have my first gyno appt on Jan 15th to get on birth control, but I'm also having a full exam.  I don't know what to expect.  I'd also like to know what kind of birth control you guys recommend and I should ask for?

I'm so naive. :/

EDIT: I'm fifteen if that helps.  And I've had my period for about two years so I don't think it's just regulating.

You may want to call and see if your gyno can see you before the 15th, if only because this has been going on for quite some time.

Like a previous poster said, it could be endometriosis, but of course only a doctor can diagnose you.

Yeah I read through all the symptoms and I have all of them. Eh, I guess I'll have to wait and see. :/
