Hello,
During the initial phase as the hormones are not mature, the menses can be sometimes heavy and can last even 7-10 days with initial heavy and then spotting with darkish brown colour and can be painful as well, changing 3-4 pads even daily initially.
This can be controlled with antifibrinolytics and also nsaids with advise of doctor if she gets puberty menorrhagia.
