What Causes Heavy Menstrual Bleeding?
Hello I am Swati. I am 23 years old. Unmarried. I have regular periods. Before 2months, I started facing problem of heavy bleeding than usual. Earlier I used to get cramps during period. Since 2months, cramps have been noticably reduced, leaving heavy bleeding. It is my 6th day today, I am bleeding heavily and releasing clots. I shown to gynac. Had blood tests, whose reports are normal for thyroid. And Hb is 11. Gynac also checked my breast. She recommended me tab Primolut N for 15days twice a day. And OCP from 5th day of my next period for 3 months. I just want to know, what this analysis say about my health. What measures need I take hereafter?
