Heavy menstrual bleeding during your period can be really distressing.

It's one of the most common reasons for people who menstruate to see their doctor. According to Women’s Health Concern, 1 in 3 women describe their period as heavy. At least 1 in 20 women speak to their doctor every year about this problem.
