A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends: If you had unprotected sex since your last period, it is possible that the heavy period may due to miscarriage of an early pregnancy, though a random variation in the amount of bleeding is just as, if not more, likely. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex. Get HPV vaccine.
