Heavy bleeding and clotting (Menorrhagia) in a 14 year old soaking through pads each hour. Was seen on Thursday by Gyno, provided Ibuprofen (idiot!) for cramps, confirmed not pregnant, sent home without further analysis and pamphlet about Ortho-tricyclene. modest style selections for prom and formal party

Methods to slow bleeding (long term ideas are welcome, but focusing on aiding the acute right now)? I provided a post-birth bleeding infusion including Sheppard's Purse, yar ... row, nettle, and hibiscus. Young lady is stable, resting, and has elevated legs, but bleeding is not decresing (and not increasing either).

I suspect endometriosis or PID, but Gyno won't consider endo until she's had several cycles at this rate.

Thanks in advance.
