Seen as though it’s been 2 weeks maybe ask your gp, they may be able to help with controlling that with things like the pill. Before going on the pill mine used to be unbearably heavy and last about 8-9 days but since being on the pill they’re super light and last 4 days. The doctor told me that was normal but not sure about being on one for 2 weeks. Hopefully you get it sorted xx

I also suggest speaking to your GP. Take note of any other symptoms, like how heavy it is, duration, pain, etc. Tell them if you experience pain during intercourse and/or bleed when you are not supposed to. This will help them see what the best course of action may be. All the best!
