Answer

How old are you?
​When I first started my period I was 13, at 14 I was put on BCP to regulate my period and make me not so sick. I was developing anemia and I'd cramp for a week before my actual period came. Go talk to your dr and see what they say. It never hurts to be safe.

Answer

you could quickly become anemic bleeding like that.

Answer

I really think you should see your doctor. This is not normal and you could become anemic and pass out. This happened to me before.

Answer

After my second baby and not going back on the pill (my husband and I use withdrawl now) my periods have been really heavy. I actually just bought one of the menstral cups in hopes that they last a big longer. I'm changing tampons extremely often myself. It's no fun!

Answer

I used to have that problem, but I switched to a menstrual cup. Google it, there are several brands, and some really good forums. I learned how to use them from forums. They hold a lot more than tampons, and no TSS risk. 
​
​My flow self adjusted after a whole, not because of the cup, just on its own. Now most months are "normal" but every once in a while I am super heavy, esp the first day.

Answer

I have that sometimes. Going through super plus tampons every hour.  I don't think it's a good thing though, and your doc should be able to give you something to help it.

Answer

Yes. ? when I first started my period, and still to this day When I wear tampons I have to change them every 30-45 minuets. It's crazy.

Answer

I was 11 when I got my period. A few years later at 14, I was soaking through ultra tampons and an overnight pad. They had to put me on BC. It does get better, but I agree, you need to go to an Gyno.

Answer

A period like that is not normal! I was talking with a naturopathic Dr and she said u should start and have light flow for a few days and that's it. I have lots of cramps and that's not normal either.
