Unexpected/heavy bleeding four days after a two week period stops?

I was diagnosed with PCOS a few years ago, so I am used to clots and extended periods. This month- after arriving late as expected my period lasted longer than usual. But- now, four days after everything stopped- I am clotting and bleeding going through a super tampon and a pad every hour/ two hours. Should I go to the hospital?

You should see your doctor to wee what's going on. It could be from not ovulating, could be due to a physical problem like a polyp or cyst, or could be from pregnancy.
