What is the cause of a sudden change in the amount of period flow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many things: Age, hormonal changes, weight changes, fibroids and polyps are just a few of the reasons. If it is one time thing then usually this self corrects. If it happens each month then consider seeing an obgyn to discuss options for cycle regulation.
