Endometriosis Support Group
Endometriosis is a common medical condition where the tissue lining the uterus is found outside of the uterus, typically affecting other organs in the pelvis. The condition can lead to serious health problems, primarily pain and infertility. A major symptom of endometriosis is pain, mostly in the lower abdomen, lower back, and pelvic area.
I've been trying to overlook this because I'm not ready to deal with any endo issues head on right now as I am about to start my spring semester with a very intense course load and my school is hours away from my reproductive endocrinologist.
I was bleeding a lot after my pap for a few days and then it lightened but still wouldn't end after over a week so I started my period off of my BC for five days which was really heavy bleeding. I went back on my pill and it took a few days for the bleeding to calm down and I thought it might have been over yesterday afternoon but it was back by the evening and it's still going...
How can I make it stop? I am moving back to school tomorrow so I can't go to the doctor, and I know when you call they usually say you have to come in...

I'm not really sure what you mean by shot but it is not normal to bleed a lot after just a pap. Some spotting might be normal but not bleeding. Especially not for days. Did they do a pelvic exam too?
For the sake of anyone else who might be having the same problem I'm going to follow up on this post.
I called my doctor (on day 19 of the bleeding). It was over the weekend so I got a call back on the 21st day from the doctor. By the 21st day the bleeding was pretty much gone. She told me to call if it happens again, and that we might need to consider breaking from the pill every month... This was my first time talking to the new doctor I was transferred to, but I was surprised to hear this. My last doctor was very adamant about not having a period every month. I guess we will just have to see what happens next time.
