Yea, suprisingly, I haven't been anemic since I was pregnant, over 3
years ago. And I have had this bleeding problem for a long time since
then. I really don't know why it keeps happening to me. It almost
feels like everything is frozen or stuck in there right now....in my
pelvic area. I have stopped bleeding for a moment, since about an hour
ago now, but feel like I'm going to explode inside. (and this is
supposed to be my actual period week). I don't understand this.
