What is menorrhagia?

Menorrhagia is a condition characterized by abnormally heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding. While menstrual flow varies from person to person, menorrhagia is diagnosed when bleeding is excessive, requiring frequent tampon or pad changes, lasting more than seven days, or causing severe cramping and fatigue.

Heavy periods can be caused by hormonal imbalances, uterine fibroids, polyps, endometriosis, bleeding disorders, or underlying medical conditions. Dr. Sidiq provides thorough evaluations to identify the cause and develop a tailored treatment plan.

When should you seek treatment for heavy periods?

Heavy menstrual bleeding can have a significant impact on your physical health and overall well-being. Seeking medical attention can help you find relief and prevent potential complications. If you experience any of the following symptoms, it may be time to consult a gynecologist: If heavy menstrual bleeding disrupts your daily life, leads to anemia, or causes severe pain, seeking medical attention is important.

Heavy period symptoms that indicate you should see a gynecologist include:

  • Periods lasting longer than seven days
  • Passing large blood clots
  • Needing to change pads or tampons every hour
  • Experiencing severe cramping or pelvic pain
  • Feeling fatigued or dizzy due to blood loss

In addition to affecting your daily activities, prolonged heavy bleeding can lead to iron-deficiency anemia, which may cause extreme fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath. It can also be a sign of underlying conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis, or hormonal imbalances that require medical attention. Consulting with an experienced gynecologist like Dr. Sidiq can help determine the cause of your heavy periods and provide effective treatment options to restore your health and quality of life.
