[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being active on your heavy day usually gets the period over sooner.[/quote]

Women who don't have gynecologic pathology are the worst...[/quote]

If that’s the case, why hasn’t she addressed it before now?[/quote]

Not the OP, but it took me a long time to address it as well. Someone upthread mentioned a "last straw" day and that's what it took for me... when I was overfowing a diva cup within 30 minutes was that day. We had a road trip scheduled for the following week--and the realization of what would have happened to a drive if my period had coincided with it is what made me get serious about addressing it.

The hostility on this thread really bums me out. I hope the "just deal with it!/what are you, 12?" people might take a moment to reflect on their responses and consider the possibility that "a heavy period" may actually mean different things to different women.

Right on!  For me, it was the attitudes of other women telling me to "just deal with it" that made me think that maybe I really am weaker.....and then not to mention the physicians who just pat you on the head and tell you not to be stressed so much......I wasn't diagnosed for 10 years since my first symptoms of endometriosis.  and yes, I had heavy bleeding.  My periods used to look like CSI.
