Prolonged Period

Question

Prolonged Period

Asked for Female, 16 Years

I'm 16 years old and I got my first period when I was about 13. My periods have always been generally irregular and I never think anything of it. I skipped my period in January and got it towards the end of February and have been bleeding for more than two weeks now. There is no pain at all and I am not sexually active. At first, there was a little blood and it was brown and it gradually got redder and a little heavier. This has never happened before. Should I be worried?
