Excessive bleeding, also known as menorrhagia, refers to heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding that can disrupt daily life and indicate underlying health issues. A woman may experience menorrhagia if she needs to change sanitary products every hour or if her periods last longer than seven days. It can be caused by various factors, including hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, or structural issues within the uterus.
Causes of Excessive Bleeding
Hormonal Imbalances: Disruptions in the balance of estrogen and progesterone can lead to excessive growth of the uterine lining, resulting in heavy bleeding.
Uterine Fibroids: Noncancerous growths in the uterus can cause heavy and painful periods.
Polyps: Small, benign growths on the lining of the uterus can lead to increased bleeding.
Medical Conditions: Conditions like endometriosis, thyroid disorders, or clotting disorders can contribute to excessive bleeding.
Medications: Certain medications, especially blood thinners, can increase the risk of heavy bleeding.
Symptoms of Excessive Bleeding
Skipped Periods: Missing one or more menstrual cycles.Heavy Menstrual Flow: Needing to change sanitary products every hour or more frequently.
Prolonged Periods: Menstrual bleeding lasting longer than seven days.
Passing Large Blood Clots: Noticing large clots during menstruation.
Fatigue or Weakness: Feeling unusually tired or weak due to blood loss.
Pelvic Pain: Experiencing discomfort or pain in the pelvic region during menstruation.
If you experience excessive bleeding, it is important to consult a healthcare provider for evaluation and diagnosis. Proper management can help alleviate symptoms and address any underlying conditions.
