Hi welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  Thanks for calling Chat Doctor. Forum.  You are having pain lower abdomen, and bleeding since 3 weeks, when a polyp is removed, and marina is fitted. G.P.prescribed period delay tablets for three weeks. Still no use. It is not fresh blood.  It appears to be the infection, and bleeding made it still worst. Marina is expected to control bleeding, still you have its means it is something.  I advise you to consult a cynic for diagnosis and treatment. First you get the marina removed, then the doctor may give you some antibiotic.  Don't worry you will be fine with this.  Best regards.
