Symptoms of abnormal periods

You've probably heard that the amount of blood you discharge during periods amounts to about a teaspoon or two. Even if it covers your pad or tampon, it's not a lot of blood, so it's no cause for alarm. But some women have a really heavy flow.

There is an important difference between heavy periods and extremely heavy periods. If you use more than 5 pads or tampons per day, and they are heavy with blood, talk to your doctor about possible hormone imbalances and health concerns.

Even if many women experience menstrual cramps during their period, it is certainly not normal. If you are experiencing extremely painful and shooting sensations in your pelvic region during your periods, then you really should not ignore this problem. This type of pain should be reported to a medical professional as soon as possible.
