Prolonged period

2018-07-12 18:48:42
I’ve had my period for going on 3 weeks. I have in regular periods so I won’t get one for probably 2 1/2 months, and when I do they last 5-7 days. I’ve recently began one and it was extremely light the first week, now the last two weeks it has been a steady flow. This morning it was kinda brown then went right back to red. What do you think is wrong? What should I do?
