Hi Pixna,

Take a look at all the articles in the research library section under gender Library This link will show you the articles and you can pick an choose from there.

Like you, I had severe constant bleeding, more like 3 week long periods out of every month. I hate to tell you how I stopped that but will anyway. One was ProGest, a low dose progesterone rub on cream, the other was an herb; Barberry.
The barberry helped the most with the excess bleeding until I finally quit for good. I only used it when things were going on longer than they should. It took about 2 days to kick in. (You may want to do a search on that herb.) The ProGest helped with mood swings as it will most with PMS as well. Now I'm on hormones that have been made only at a compounding pharmacy according to my blood levels that I get checked every 3 months. Have you had a good hormonal blood workup? That can tell a good doc a lot.
