Heavy Periods: Symptoms, Causes, Treatment

Heavy Periods

Pictured above is a vulva on a white background with blood around it. A heavy period, or menorrhagia, refers to periods of excessive bleeding. Women who experience heavy periods may need to change their tampons or pads frequently and could also experience tiredness, anaemia, and cramping. Causes of a heavy period can be hormone imbalances, a uterine fibroid, a uterine polyp, or even a bleeding disorder. Treatments for women with heavy periods can range from hormonal contraception to taking medications to slow or stop the bleeding, or in severe cases, surgical interventions like endometrial ablation or hysterectomy. Women experiencing heavy periods are encouraged to speak with their provider about the cause of their bleeding and the appropriate treatment options.
