Look, you’re likely dealing with endometrial hyperplasia. Basically, it means your uterine lining has thickened up. Usually, that lining sheds once a month, but since yours is thicker than it should be, the bleeding ends up being way heavier and lasting much longer than normal.

That lining grows because of estrogen levels coming from the ovaries, which is why I started suspecting there might be some kind of hormonal imbalance or issue with your ovaries.

Do you have any history of liver issues, or maybe anything going on with your adrenal glands?
If your ovaries and uterus both come back clean, then we really need to start looking elsewhere for what's causing that thickening.
Ask your doctor specifically how thick the uterine lining actually is.
Either way, you need to get back to the gynecologist for another exam.

We really need to nail down why the bleeding has ramped up. What did they say about your uterine lining thickness? My guess is it’s gotten too thick, which leads to much heavier shedding and, well, all this extra bleeding you're dealing with.

It's usually the estrogen levels—those hormones drive that lining thickening, and sometimes things like ovarian issues can cause estrogen to spike. I wonder if they even bothered checking your ovaries during the ultrasound?

Go ahead and take the medication, but stick strictly to the dosage and schedule your doctor laid out for you.

It’s tough living under a microscope like this, but I guess you have to be careful about what you're actually putting in your body.

Let’s be honest, getting someone to commit to a urologist is an uphill battle.
Your boyfriend—or whoever this guy is—really needs to get checked out.
Is there any discharge coming from that lump? Is it just one isolated spot, or is there more going on under the surface?

It’s hard enough being the responsible one in a relationship. Honestly, you should probably just nudge him toward a doctor. If he keeps ignoring this, he's only making things worse for himself down the line.

Try pressing on the swollen area to see if it leaves an indentation after you let go.

At this point, we’re all just guessing what might be going on. Without a full medical history and a hands-on physical exam, everything we say is just pure speculation.

Honestly, your best bet is to just head to a doctor. You aren't going to get any real answers hovering around here.
