What could this bleeding be??

Had my period 2 weeks ago, was fairly heavy and lasted around a week. Around a week later I had some spotting, mostly when going to the toilet and since then I've been bleeding on and off for about 4 days now, instead of slowing down it was quite heavy today. Have some slight pains which are a bit like period pains. My stomach looks bloated today. Is it something I should be concerned about. I'm 30 and have yearly smears due to hpv. I'm due one in a few weeks but wondering if I should try and get it brought forward?? Thanks

Are you on contraception? Could be something as simple as this. I’m sorry I have no experience with HPV

Yeah I have a coil. Bled for a week- was just like a period. Still got some spotting and pain.

If it isn't contraceptives. Maybe, possibly something like a fibroid? I have had very heavy periods for years. This changed last December to a period which started on Dec 12th, has maybe stopped for 3 or 4 days and then back again for 10 days, and so on for past few months.

If I was you, to put my mind at rest I would ask to bring my smear forward.

Thanks tricky. I'll try and ring on Monday. Stomach is hugely bloated today, like I'm pregnant
