DD bleeding too heavily

My DD is 13 later this year and started her periods last month. She bled very heavily, but I told her this would settle down in time. However, she's started again pretty much exactly a month later and the same thing has happened again.

We were out at a family do last night so she was late in bed -about 11 rather than 9.30 - and when I went to wake her today, she's soaked her pants, PJ bottoms, and the bed Sad. It looks like a blood bath and she's a bit freaked (so am I tbh).

So my question is, will this settle down? I can't think back that far for myself and none of my friends have girls at this age yet. DH (who officially doesn't know any of this as DD doesn't want him or her brothers to know yet) is all set to storm A&E with her Wink. Do I sit tight and wait for a few more months or do I get her to the docs now?

The Stop Your Period pill is called Norestithelone. It's absolutely brilliant for that awful moment when you realise that your precious week in a nice warm sunny place with seaside and swimming pool is also the exact same week as your period is going to happen.
