A member asked:

F, 38, extreme heavy period which started about 8-10 days earlier. 7 days now of very heavy bleeding and cramps. is it normal? she has anemia and varicose veins in uterus, also usually has heavy periods but not as heavy. what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bleeding as described, with a history of "heavy periods" at age "38" may be due to adenomyosis or leiomyomata (fibroid tumors). See a gyn physician for testing (ultrasound), and ask about low dose oral bcp's to establish regular cycles and diminished bleeding.
