Dr. Justin Diedrich answered

Specializes in Gynecology

See OBGYN: If you're having more than one menses per month, you probably need to see your physician. There are various causes for this, and it depends on each person's particular situation. Birth control pills (or a Progesterone iud) could potentially treat your condition. Ask your doctor about a Mirena (levonorgestrel) iud.
