What Causes ongoing periods even when taking birth control?

Question: A relative has ongoing periods (not spotting) and is very tired all the time. I assume it's due to blood loss. Any idea as to the cause or cure for this?

Answers:
Fibroid tumors are probably the most common cause. Millions of women have the tumors in their ueterus and don't even know it. My wife would have a period for almost 2 weeks, then sometimes 2 weeks later she'd start her period again. Sometimes she'd go 6 or 7 weeks between periods. Even though everyone says birth control regulates the period, it did nothing to help her. After she finally went to an OB/GYN she had to have a hysterectomy to remove the tumors and the intense pain she was in.

She is now healthy, loving life, and had no hormonal changes from the surgery.
