My 5 day periods have changed. i am 36. they start out lighter, normal around third day but last day of my period is extremely heavy. why?

Periods change : Age, weight, stress, hormonal fluctuations can all lead to menstrual changes. There are many options for cycle control. Birth control methods can decrease bleeding. Lysteda is a nonhormonal medication. Endometrial ablations work great for those done having children.
