Interactive Guide
Is this normal?
Choose a concern to see common possibilities, what you can do at home, and clear “when to consult” thresholds. (Educational only — not medical advice.)
Selected concern
Heavy bleeding
Educational guidance — not a diagnosis.
Common / normal possibilities
Frequent, non-diagnostic possibilities — patterns vary by person.
Some cycles are heavier due to stress, travel, or hormonal fluctuation.
In the first 1–2 years after first period, cycles can be irregular and heavier.
Perimenopause can cause cycle changes (including heavier flow) for some people.
What you can do at home
Safe, general actions to support comfort and clarity.
Track: start day, duration, and how often you change pads/tampons.
Stay hydrated and rest if you feel drained.
If cramps are present, use safe comfort measures you already tolerate (heat, rest).
When to consult a doctor
Clear thresholds — if any applies, don’t self-manage.
Soaking through a pad/tampon every hour for 2+ hours.
Large clots repeatedly, or dizziness/fainting.
Bleeding that lasts unusually long for you (e.g., 8–10+ days) or keeps worsening.
Signs of anemia: extreme fatigue, breathlessness, paleness.

Tip
