A member asked:

My last period was in may. this morning my periods started. is it ok. should i worry about it. i am 43. feeling dizzy and weak. please advice.

Sure: When you get a period after several months, it can be heavier. If you are dizzy because of heavy bleeding then you should see a doctor in the emergency room or their office. if you are changing 1 pad per hour that is considered heavy. Good luck.
