Symptoms of retained placenta? (prolonged)?

What are the symptoms of retained placenta? I know the immediate symptoms; I'm referring to a woman who is still spotting twelve weeks after birth. There was initially a rather large blood loss. Never slowed until passage of v. large clots at 4 wks. postpartum, then stopped completely for several days, only to resume as spotting for the last 7 weeks. Individual has also had difficulty with milk supply and weight loss which has not occurred in prior pregnancies; could be related?

No 'call the doctor' replies, please. It's obvious and it's been done; no ultrasound just a rather bored-sounding nurse insisting it's a period.

Answer:
I am sorry to say there are no doctors on-line in Yahoo and I suspect that even the qualified nurses who do answer here cannot or would not dare to give their opinion. All I did was look up your description and you can decide what does seem
