Menorrhagia is the medical term used to refer abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding during menstrual periods.
Approximately 50% of females with heavy period issues have no uterine abnormalities. It might be associated with hormonal or chemical levels in the endometrium (inner uterine lining) or endometrial disorders that have not yet been identified.
If you're afraid because of this heavy menstrual bleeding, talk to your doctor. There are plenty effective treatment options for the condition.
How can heavy bleeding knock you down?
Complications
Excessive or prolonged menstrual bleeding can lead to other medical conditions such as:
Severe pain - You may have painful menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea) along with acute menstrual bleeding. Sometimes menorrhagia-related cramps are potentially serious to require medical assessment.
Anemia - Menorrhagia may cause anemia by reducing the number of red blood cells. Hemoglobin, a protein that allows red blood cells to carry oxygen to tissues, measures the amount of circulating red blood cells. Menorrhagia may drop iron levels sufficiently to increase the risk of anemia with iron deficiency
Although diet can play an important role in minimising the complications associated with this condition. Thus, follow proper diet along with medication to deal with
heavy period issues.
