If you are bleeding that heavily for this long you should have already called your doctor. CALL NOW and make an appointment for tomorrow morning.

It's not completely unusual to experience a slight change in your periods with certain medications, illnesses or life conditions but when it is prolonged or drastically different it is time to cal a doctor.

If you cannot reach your doctor's office then ask to have the doctor on call - they will page him/her and when they call you back tell them exactly what you have told us along with any other symptoms you may be having (cramping, nausea, vomtiting, diarrhea, fever, rash, etc.) and they will tell you to either come to the office in the morning or go to your nearest ER.

Good Luck
