When it's that time of the month and a heavy period interferes with your lifestyle, it's time to take action.
You Will Need
* Extra sleep
* A record of your period's intensity and frequency
* A doctor
* Ibuprofen
* A low-fat, high-fiber diet
Step 1
Get extra rest if your bleeding is severe and disruptive to your normal schedule or lifestyle.
Step 2
Record the number of pads and tampons you use so your doctor can determine if the amount of bleeding is excessive.
Step 3
Avoid aspirin because it interferes with blood clotting. Ibuprofen is often more effective than aspirin in relieving menstrual discomforts.
Step 4
Adjust your diet to lessen the effects of a heavy menstrual cycle. Studies show a low-fat, high-fiber diet reduces menstrual cramping.
Limit your salt intake. Also restrict your caffeine, sugar, and alcohol consumption.
Step 5
Seek medical assistance if bleeding intensifies or is accompanied by excessive pain or unusual discharge.
Fact: Sanitary napkins were first sold commercially in 1895.
