Unusual bleeding

Hi looking for a bit of advice. I have been bleeding since the 12th Sept sometimes I have had a day or 2 where I haven't. It is usually spotting and have also clots as well. I am a bit concerned as due to having too much prolactin I don't have periods very often but when I do it doesn't last this long. I have already spoke to a doctor but didn't seem that helpful she kept saying STI (have been with my bf for over 5 years and have been checked b4 and after we got together) and asked if I am pregnant which I am not. Just really concerned as I know I am probably over worrying but this is how my mam found out she had cancer of the womb and I can't get in for a smear test until the 17th. Has anyone had any problems like this?

I went to the doctors yesterday had smear test which I was due anyway as well as 4 lots of blood tests done. Had spoke 2 doctor before on phone and she came up with a list if things to check- prolactin levels, Sti, pregnancy. Defo not pregnant and nurse said no sign of infection which I knew they didn't be. Nurse said she wud contact doctor to get a scan arranged. Fingers crossed all comes back ok
