Dear Tete Barbara
In November last year I got into a relationship with a married man and before I knew it we became intimate. After a few months we excluded protective measures from the equation and soon afterwards my worst nightmare began.
Two days after the deed, I began to pass water like fluids from my privates and I concluded that it was water from the bath tub. After meeting again the fluid increased and then after a day I began bleeding.
I expected it to be a normal menstruation but it has been going on ever since. I have tried birth control pills to no avail but now I think it’s more spiritual than natural. Sometimes, I think it’s about to end then it starts again. I have since ended relations with him. Help me, I am afraid.

Lady, I have one piece of advice for you, “Go to the doctor now!” You cannot ignore such a problem and just brush it off as nothing. You sound like a mature woman who would understand that bleeding for more than your normal menstrual cycle days is a red flag.
Firstly, you had a watery discharge and ignored that and you thought that breaking up with your boyfriend would stop a problem like this? Please visit your gynaecologist as a matter of urgency. There could be a problem that is growing each day you ignore the signs. It could be a bacterial infection or maybe a form of cancer. I am not a doctor but I know you need one, oh and please always be protected, wise and de-tangle yourself from complicated situations. Act now!
