To assume most ladies don’t have as heavy periods as this (tmi sorry)....

I need to wear the most absorbable tampon that you can buy. So the supper super plus super one and I have to put in a night pad and have to put two towels and a blanket down incase I ‘leak’ during night.

I always have to get up to change the tampon during night too otherwise I would flood (that’s why I have to put all the towels down etc)

For example this morning I put a new one in at say 10.15am and by 1 ish I stood up and could blood dripping down my leg as it had soaked through the tampon- again I always wear the most absorbing one.

I mean is this normal? None of my friends have ever experienced the heaviness.

I’ve always had heavy periods and used to get bad cramps but now I don’t get cramps- I can only assume it’s because my womb has been stretched with having 2 children.

It drains the life out of me this.

We had a few reports about this thread and took it down temporarily while we checked behind the scenes. We've reinstated it now and have moved it over to our Women's Health topic, as we think that's a better place for it.

Sorry for the interruption. Flowers

@Hunnybears

Did someone report this thread? I mean.... why? I just don’t understand 🤷‍♀️ It’s a thread about heavy periods for goodness sake!!

Thank goodness MN can see it’s a normal thread after taking a look.

Unfortunately we've had some dodgy trolls on the site in the past, so we can understand why people just want to check with us first - it's nothing personal.

And AIBU isn't the wrong place, but it's often the topic of choice for trolls, in our experience - they're after maximum attention. So we felt moving your thread over to Women's Health would be sensible - not least because we're sure you'll get plenty of responses here from Mumsnetters who know what you're going through.

Sorry for the derail - we'll dip out now.
