Talk to experienced gynaecologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Heavy periods often follow a major illness like pneumonia, since your hormone balance can take a few cycles to settle after being unwell and on medication. This usually improves gradually on its own.
Next Steps
Track how many pads and days of heavy flow each cycle. Please see a gynaecologist for a hormone panel and pelvic ultrasound if it hasn't settled in the next cycle or two.
Health Tips
See a doctor sooner if you're soaking a pad every hour, passing large clots, or feeling dizzy or very tired.
