According to your description of painful
and prolonged menstruation, it seems that
you are experiencing menorrhagia with
dysmenorrhea. These symptoms can be due to
endometriosis, a myoma, a polyp in the
uterus, infection and other organic
disorders of the uterus. You HAVE TO visit
your gynecologist to find out the reason
for these painful and prolonged
menstruations. A vaginal examination and
ultrasound examination would be required
in order to diagnose the problem.
