Month long period

I had my period for over a month. It was terrible and I was so nervous as to what could be wrong with me. I’ve been on the pill for a few years and this had never happened. When I finally went to the dr, she ran a few blood tests and prescribed me 10 days of progestin and a new BC with a slightly different formula. Turns out (luckily) that’s all I needed. Unfortunately though even after insurance was billed $1500 for the blood tests I’m stuck with $650 payment. Advice to anyone in the same situation, ask if you can try a new BC BEFORE they run blood tests or try and schedule a pelvic ultrasound. You’ll save a lot of money and hopefully find a quick fix. (Just for background info, I was on tri-lo sprintec for years and when it turned sour I stopped for a few months then started ortho-tri-cyclen. worked well until I experienced this. Now I’m on Blisovi Fe 5/30)

tldr; if you have your period 30+days, ask your doc for a new bc before spending thousands on blood tests and ultrasounds.
