A member asked:
At what point do i need to worry about heavy/prolonged menstruation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You have 2 issues here, heavy & prolonged menstrual bleeding. Bleeding is heavy if you're soaking through pads every 2 hours. Prolonged periods is when they persist after a week. Hormonal imbalance is probably playing a role. Fibroids are another possibility. Anemia& weakness are eventually going to occur, so you must contact your gynecologist for instructions & advice.
