As this has been going on for so long, this really needs to be looked at asap as prolonged bleeding can lead to anemia. If you are soaking one pad or tampon in an hour then this warrants a trip to the ER immediately. Menstrual abnormalities can be caused by a number of different things including stress, weight gain/loss, thyroid, hormonal imbalance, polyp, cyst, amongst other reasons. I would definately either find a new doctor asap or make a trip to the ER and this is very abnormal and should not be going on this long.
