What would cause a woman who always has normal periods, to start one but for some reason this one is incredibly heavy. I mean waking up and finding she has to strip sheet,mattress protector, clothing and then having to change tampon/pad within 15 minutes of previous fresh ones? Bad tummy pains but that is normal. Anything to worry about? TIA x
one of the more memorable perimenopause symptoms I had was a 30 day heavy bleed like this, aged around 42. Apparently its not uncommon. I had to get medical support to stop it (depo provera injection) but this was 20 years ago and I am sure there are less drastic methods of dealing with it now. The other possibility might be an early miscarriage. Either way nothing to worry about but I would be getting some medical advice if it doesn't ease after a couple of days.
My periods have been really heavy in the last few years. I can actually feel the blood flowing out. I have started using a pampers baby dry mat thing on the bed. It is mighty annoying.
Hmmm, just for a split second wondered if that was the case with me. Mine are never exact to the day, but roughly every 30-35 days or so. No, would be almost impossible for that to have happened......
