Bleeding gums

Hello everyone I have a bleeding gums problem since long time ago probably 12 years or maybe a little more. When I go to the dentist he says it's gingivitis and he performs a complete cleaning of my gums I get fine for 2 months or so and I try to follow every single advice about brushing and flossing and using mouthwash 3 times a day but nothing works! After 2 months it starts bleeding again and it's getting worse with time! At this time it bleeds A LOT very easily I mean it's a lot of blood when I touch some points of my gums but it stops bleeding after 30 seconds or so... If you look to my teeth you will never guess that I have this problem. I have good white and clean teeth with a tiny dark red line in some points of my gums. (especially above the front teeth). I've done 2 blood tests in the last month because of other stuff and they were completely normal and I have no other disease I think. What can cause this? Do some people just have "sensible" gums and bleed like this? Because I don't feel that I'm doing nothing wrong to cause it and I can't find any other cause for it! Thanks a lot

Hello and thank you for your comments. In the meantime I booked a visit to a periodontist which is "the best" here or at least people say it. So I hope he understands better what's going wrong with my gums. I will keep this post updated as soon as I have news. (which is probably after 4 or 5 months if my problem stops
