Understanding heavy menstrual bleeding

Periods vary from woman to woman, and having heavy periods can often be considered normal.

However, having periods that stain clothing, changing tampons frequently, and being unable to leave the house
on the heaviest days can be signs of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB).

Many women suffer from HMB, and, thankfully, there are treatment options available to you.

CHECK WHETHER YOU'RE LIKELY TO HAVE HMB

Take the Period Quiz to find out if you're likely to have HMB. Discuss your results with your doctor and learn more about possible treatment options.
