What Is Menorrhagia?

Menorrhagia is a condition marked by abnormally heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding. It’s more than just a “heavy period.” You may need to change your pad or tampon every hour, bleed longer than seven days, or notice clots larger than a quarter. This level of blood loss can disrupt your daily life and lead to fatigue or anemia. At Femme Med and Spa, we take these symptoms seriously. If your period is affecting your well-being, we help you feel like yourself again.

Signs & Symptoms of Menorrhagia

  • Soaking through pads or tampons every hour for several hours in a row
  • Needing to use double protection to control menstrual flow
  • Waking at night to change pads or tampons
  • Passing blood clots larger than a quarter
  • Bleeding longer than seven days
  • Feeling tired, weak, or short of breath during your period
  • Limiting daily activities because of heavy bleeding

Uncover the Root Cause of Menorrhagia

If your period is interfering with your life, it’s time to take a closer look. At Femme Med and Spa, we start by listening closely to your symptoms and history. From there, we may recommend bloodwork, a pelvic exam, ultrasound, or hormone testing to get a clearer picture.

You don’t have to guess what’s going on—our goal is to uncover the root cause of your heavy bleeding so we can create a personalized plan that brings relief and restores balance to your life.

Possible Causes of Menorrhagia

  • Hormonal imbalances that affect your menstrual cycle
  • Uterine fibroids or noncancerous growths in the uterus
  • Polyps along the uterine lining
  • Adenomyosis, when uterine tissue grows into the muscle wall
  • Bleeding disorders that affect blood clotting
  • Side effects from certain birth control methods or medications
  • Thyroid issues that disrupt hormonal regulation
  • Underlying conditions like endometriosis or pelvic infections

Personalized Treatments for Menorrhagia

Once we understand what’s causing your heavy bleeding, we’ll walk you through your options. Depending on your needs, we may recommend hormone therapy, birth control, medications to reduce bleeding, or minimally invasive procedures.

We’ll also consider how your symptoms affect your lifestyle, fertility goals, and overall health. At Femme Med and Spa, we’ll help you choose a path that feels right—so you can move through life with more ease and energy.
