Hi . normal menstruation occurs every monthly with a variation of 21to 35 days for 5to 7 days to cause a loss of 80ml of blood . such a heavy menses with breast tenderness might be associated with either hormonal imbalance or local cause.hypothyroidism,hyperprolactinaemia,fibroid, polyp, congestion due to local inflammationor DUB are some causes. get yourself checked by gynaecologist. get your sonography done to rule out local causes. do blood investigations of tsh, prolactin, cbc, bsl,to rule out systemic causes. you can be prescribed for oc pill or only progesteron pills dependinn on reports .If you are approaching your menapause the andometrial sample to be snt for biopsy to rule out cancer.

Hi
Hope this message finds u in good health.
I have gone through ur msg and understand your concern.

it may be due to some sort of hormonal imbalances or variations in the body,though there may be other reasons as well

Nothing to worry about, You should eventually get back to normal.

Take multi vitamin and calcium supplements
Do consult a gynecologist if symptoms worsen

Get back to me for any FOLLOW UP QUERIES anytime.
