A doctor has provided 1 answer

Menorrhagia: Hello, Heavy period is a concern for many women, but there may be a gynecological cause for this including such things as fibroids. If you have pelvic pain as well, there are other diagnoses for which you would be evaluated. For women who care candidates for hormonal birth control, this is an option which can cause lighter periods. Other treatments depend on the cause for the heavy periods.
