See a doctor : If you are bleeding that heavily you need to be seem ASAP whether it is by your GYN, PCP, an urgent care clinic or an emergency room. Good luck. Be well

Go to ER: You may have lost so much blood that you may require a transfusion. Once you are stabilized the Gyn team can evaluate why your periods are so heavy. It may be secondary to fibroids, polyps or other reasons. Good luck!
