A member asked:
Why do i get heavy menstrual bleeding overnight but not during the day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: This is not common, but may be due to the relaxation of your uterus at bedrest allowing easier and greater flow, whereas activity may be causing contractile forces to retain your menses.
