Call your doctor if you are bleeding
through a pad an hour.

Definitely get to the doc. You are losing
too much blood and it could (though
unlikely) be a sign of internal problems.

Heavy Periods Posted: 10-02-07 17:01pm
hi there lee-hozz 57,im guessing that this
could be to do with the menopause,im going
through the very same thing ...really
heavy periods,BIG blood clots and severe
back pain,when i asked my doc about this
he said "its natures way,of telling you
that you are are at the end of your
productive life " ! sad really he also
said your body "emptying out if that makes
sense ...it did to me,just go along to
your doctor to be sure ,good luck .x

Menstruation & Pregnancy Posted: 12-17-07 13:33pm
Is it possible to get pregnant after your
period...I remember hear that you can get
pregnant 2 weeks before & 2 weeks
after your menstruation...
basically, I would like to if it's
possible to get pregnant a few days after
your period.

Yeah, you can get pregnant during your
period, before it, after it, anytime, If
you're not using some sort of protection.
About two weeks before or after it is the
most fertile time for most women, however,
you can get pregnant any time.
