are many possible causes for heavy periods. As always, when you book a consultation, we will look at your personal circumstances to make a diagnosis.<\/p><p><strong>Endometriosis<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"\/gynaecology-clinic\/endometriosis\/\">Endometriosis<\/a> is a condition that occurs when tissue similar to that found in the lining of the uterus grows outside of it.<\/p><p><strong>Adenomyosis<\/strong><br \/>Adenomyosis causes heavy periods because tissue similar to the uterus lining now grows within the uterus muscle. It makes the uterus larger, so there is more surface and that causes heavier periods. Adenomyosis will also increase the level of prostaglandin and that makes uterine contractions (or period cramps) more painful. Because of the increased size of your uterus, many women will experience lower back pain and they are often surprised that after a number of normal x-rays of the spine that their back pain is coming from the uterus.<\/p><p><strong>PCOS<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"\/gynaecology-clinic\/pcos-specialist\/\">Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)<\/a> is a common health issue caused by an imbalance of reproductive hormones. Women with PCOS often have irregular cycles, and periods can be heavy.<\/p><p><strong>Fibroids<\/strong><br \/>Fibroids are benign growths in the uterus, made up of muscle cells. It changes the lining and there is now a larger surface when you have your period. The closer the fibroid is to the lining of the uterus &#8211; or when it is inside it &#8211; the heavier the bleeding can be.<\/p><p><strong>Polyps<\/strong><br \/>Polyps are also benign growths of the uterus lining. They are a common cause of heavy periods and when they have been surgically removed, the heavy bleeding is usually reduced. Particularly in older women, the symptoms of cancer could mimic the symptoms of a polyp and therefore it is important for post-menopausal women to always seek help from a specialist should they experience bleeding.<\/p><p><strong>Puberty or perimenopause<\/strong><br \/>At the start of your period or towards the end of it, you may experience heavy bleeding. It is caused by infrequent egg release, with too much oestrogen simulation and a failure in your progesterone production. That then causes an overgrowth of your uterine lining and you may suffer from erratic bleeding over a longer time.<\/p><p><strong>Inherited conditions<\/strong><br \/>Conditions such as Von Willebrands disease or Von Willebrands disorder can influence your period and the level of bleeding. The condition is a bleeding disorder, and if you have it it means that the level of clotting protein in your blood is too low. With this condition, the control of bleeding from the uterus lining is weaker than normal and you would experience heavier blood loss.<\/p><p><strong>Physiological changes after childbirth<\/strong><br \/>If you have had children and you are over 40, then your uterus will be larger than before you had children. In simple terms, it means that there is now a larger surface area when the lining of your uterus sheds and starts the bleeding.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section

It means that there is oestrogen production happening even when no egg is released. Progesterone stops the growth of your uterine lining and when there is no pregnancy, the progesterone support drops, and the lining is shed. Gynaecologists sometimes prescribe progesterone tablets to stabilize the uterus lining. Problematic bleeding is then treated with the use of this medication for two weeks of each month.<\/p><p><strong>Tranexamic\/mefenamic acid:<\/strong><br \/>This medication reduces the amount of bleeding by accelerating the clotting in the blood vessels in your uterus. The treatment is known to significantly reduce blood loss and it is only used during your period. So in other words, you can still use it and try to conceive.<\/p><p><strong>Contraceptive pill:<\/strong><br \/>When we prescribe oral contraceptives, that is because the oestrogen and progesterone in the pill suppress the natural flow of your menstrual cycle. Contraceptives are often better than a treatment based only on progesterone. Oestrogen stimulates the uterus lining so it grows, and progesterone stops that growth. The pills have a dominating progesterone effect, so the end result is a thinner lining and a lighter period.<\/p><p><strong>Hormonal intrauterine devices<\/strong><br \/>Intrauterine devices such as the Mirena IUD are highly effective in controlling heavy periods. After a few months, periods become much lighter or they stop completely. It is a contraceptive method and you can only use it if you are not hoping or trying to conceive.<\/p><p><strong>Endometrial ablation<\/strong><br \/>This is a gynaecological procedure that uses extreme cold or microwave energy to destroy the lining of your uterus. It reduces or stops the menstrual flow. Falling pregnant after this procedure could be hazardous so ensuring pregnancy does not occur becomes very important after endometrial ablation.<\/p><p><strong>Hysterectomy<\/strong><br \/>A definitive way to treat heavy periods is the removal of the uterus. It must be done only after careful consideration of your intentions to have children. If you have serious underlying conditions (<a href=\"\/gynaecology-clinic\/endometriosis\/\">endometriosis<\/a>, <a href=\"\/gynaecology-clinic\/#fibroids\">fibroids<\/a>, or <a

many ways that we can address heavy bleeding. And what is acceptable bleeding for one woman might not be for somebody else, for example working women and women who are travelling a lot to different time zones, or those engaged in sports. Therefore at Melbourne Mothers we believe that individualising care and providing each woman with the best options for them whilst informing about other treatment modalities is of paramount importance. Large doses of hormones and medication are not suitable for everyone and similarly, hysterectomy is not the most desired option for others. Finding the right solution each time is what makes our role in your care rewarding.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heavy periods Melbourne Heavy periods You may have questions about what defines your periods as heavy.
