If she is on thyroid medications, check her thyroid levels are normal or the dosage has to be adjusted, get a scan done, to rule any other issues

Thyroid can cause excess bleeding. Please give your doctor a call. Don't take medicines on your own. 18 days is very long time. She probably needs to be put on hormones till her thyroid is not under control
