A member asked:
Could having heavy periods for seven days cause my anemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heavy period ?'s: Heavy periods at age 34 can certainly cause anemia over time. Causes can be secondary to fibroid tumors, or other gyn abnormalities. See your gyn physician for an exam and treatment.
