I started my period today, and it's not normal for me. (i'm not preg. or on birth control.). i've soaked 2 "heavy" pads in 30 mins. any advice?

Many options: There are multiple options. Hormonal treatments such as birth control pills, Progesterone treatments and the Mirena (levonorgestrel) iud are effective reversible treatments that will help many people. There is also a drug called Lysteda that contains no hormones which will help others. If you are done having children discuss the option of an endometrial ablation.
