Protection: You can see your doctor for medications to lighten your period. Otherwise you can use tampons, pads, instead cup or diva cup to prevent leakage. You can also double up - wear 2 overnight sanitary pads and a super plus tampon. Some people also wear diapers.

See your doctor: See your doctor. If you have no contraindications, your doctor can give you a birth control pack and instruct you how to take it in order to stop bleeding.
