MENORRHAGIA: Medroxyprogesterone, continuous bleeding

I am a 34 year old overweight female. I was having a problem with non stop bleeding. I did all the tests, pap, ultrasound, biopsy, glucose, hormone, etc.. Everything came back normal, dr thinks it is because I'm overweight. I was bleeding for months and the dr prescribed aygestin for 10 days, it stopped the bleeding then gave me a "real" period and then I hadn't had a period in 3 months. The dr then put me on medroxyprogesterone to induce a period since I had some minor side effects from the aygestin. I took the medroxyprogesterone for 14 days, had brown discharge for almost 2 weeks and now a full blown period, bad cramps and for 3 days soaked through multiple pads along with my clothes. It's been 13 days and I'm still bleeding. I have a history of blood clots so I'm trying not to go on regular birth control but am thinking that may be my only option. I am taking coumadin and will continue to take it as long as I am on any hormones. I am losing weight slowly but in the meantime I need some kind of solution. I am still not ready to give up on having children so I don't want ablation or a hysterectomy. Any other suggestions?
