Heavy Periods Are Not Something You Should Ignore
Many women think heavy periods are normal because they happen often. But if you are bleeding too much during your period, your body may be trying to tell you that something is wrong.
If you soak a pad every 1 to 2 hours, pass large blood clots, or your period lasts more than 7 days, it is important to pay attention.
One common cause of heavy bleeding is fibroids. Fibroids can make the uterus larger and affect how it contracts during menstruation, leading to heavier bleeding.
Here are some signs that your bleeding may be too heavy:
• You need to change your pad very often, even during the night.
• You pass blood clots bigger than a coin.
• You feel weak, dizzy, or short of breath during your period.
• You crave things like ice or chalk, which may be a sign of low iron.
• Your period affects your work, business, or daily activities.
Heavy bleeding over a long period can cause anemia (low blood level). This can make you feel tired, weak, have headaches, poor concentration, and a fast heartbeat.
Here are some simple ways to support your health:
Eat iron-rich foods regularly such as ugu, spinach, beans, sardines, dates, beetroot, and liver in moderation.
Take foods rich in Vitamin C like oranges, lemons, and guava to help your body absorb iron better.
Keep track of your menstrual cycle. Note the number of days you bleed, the amount of bleeding, clots, and pain. This information can be helpful when speaking with a healthcare professional.
If you feel extremely weak, faint, or have difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately.
You do not have to suffer in silence.
