Many women and girls think heavy periods are normal. But sometimes, they are a sign of a bleeding disorder like haemophilia. Look out for these warning signs:
๐ฉธ Periods lasting more than 7 days
๐ฉธ Soaking through pads/tampons every 2 hours or less
๐ฉธ Passing large clots
๐ฉธ Frequent bruising
๐ฉธ Heavy bleeding after childbirth
Today, as we observe World Haemophilia Day, know that you deserve assessment and support if you experience excessive menstrual bleeding. Don't suffer in silence! Speak to your gynaecologist if these symptoms sound familiar.
