i started my period about a week late and now am bleeding really heavy and feel kind of dizzy and weak....?

Question

what could be going on with me?

Answer 1

I experienced a number of menstrual problems last year, so here's my advice:

*immediately book an appointment -- not just with your gynecologist, but an endocrinologist if possible (they handle hormonal disorders, and menstruation is affected by most hormonal imbalances)

*take iron, as recommended by your doctor, because blood loss = low iron = less oxygen = weakness

*don't do anything over strenuous -- rest up and eat well

*if this is an ongoing thing your doctor will probably recommend birth control pill to help regulate your cycle

Answer 2

It sounds like you became anemic from the heavy bleeding. You'll need to see a doctor for treatment.
Iron supplements can help you out in the future. It won't help too much now that you are already anemic, so you still need to get to a doctor to get a blood test and an evaluation

Answer 3

Because there are a number of possibilities that could be causing this this needs to be evaluated by your dr to try and figure out what could be causing the problem.

Answer 4

if its rly heavy and you constantly feel sick and dick i would go to hospital, if its not that bad to go to hospital then you should go to the doctors
