A member asked:

I'm overflowing a super plus tampon every 30 minutes all day,painful cramps,have hypothyroidism. is this normal?

Menstrual bleeding: This sounds like quite a bit of bleeding. It also sounds like this is new for you - that you are not used to having to change this much? I would have some blood work checked and then discuss treatments for excessive bleeding with your gynecologist if all blood work normal.
