When is a heavy period too heavy?

الدكتورة سارة جارفيس

Heavy periods are common. In most cases no cause can be found. In some cases a cause is found such as endometriosis, fibroids and other conditions. There are a number of ways of improving heavy periods and making them more manageable. Options include medication to reduce bleeding, a type of intrauterine system - sometimes called a coil - placed in the womb (uterus), or an operation.
