[quote=Anonymous]I'm a 26yr old female who has had heavy periods for as long as I can remember. I realize that yes, I am posting on a public forum, asking for advice from strangers, but I really don't have anyone/where else to turn. I do [b]not[/b] have health insurance, so going to a doctor is not an option. I also don't have any family (my Mom passed away, and the rest of my family and I aren't close). So, here I am...

My last period was in Feb. of 2011 - until 3 weeks ago. For the past 3 weeks my period has been heavy to extremely heavy (as in, using super plus tampons, and pads). There have been a couple of nights where I was up every couple of hours because the bleeding was so heavy. I suppose after a year and a half it's to be expected? As I said, I've ALWAYS had heavy periods - they usually last 2+ weeks (during that time they could be light, but usually they are heavy, with clots).

I was curious if any other females out there have this issue, and have any tips/advice on coping with this. Anything I might be able to try to help, ect.

TIA.[/quote]
