The duration and severity of menstrual bleeding varies from woman to woman. If a woman’s menstrual period is excessively heavy, prolonged, or irregular, it is called menorrhagia. Symptoms of menorrhagia include a menstrual period that lasts longer than seven days and bleeding is so heavy that you must change your pad more than once per hour. You should see your doctor if you have excessively heavy or prolonged menstrual periods that interfere with your daily life. Keep track of your menstrual cycles, how long your blood flow lasts, and how many sanitary pads you use during each cycle. This information will be helpful at your next gynecological appointment. Avoid products that contain aspirin because they may increase bleeding.
