A member asked:

When i'm on my menstrual cycle, i get lots of bruising on my upper thighs and stomach. also, i get so tired i can't get out of bed. what causes this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a hematologist: It is unusual to only have easy bruising during your period. If your periods are very heavy and depleting your blood reserves, you should see both your gynecologist and a hematologist (blood doctor.).
