Do You Have Heavy Menstrual Bleeding? What You Can Do About It…

Dalene Barton - Certified Herbalist, Birth Doula
July 13, 2021
Reviewed by Christine Traxler, MD

Some women experience heavy blood flow and clotting during their menstrual cycle. On average a woman with a โ€œnormalโ€ menstrual cycle should only shed 2 to 3 tablespoons (30 to 44 milliliters) of blood during menstruation shares Dr. Aviva Romm, Integrative Medicine Doctor, Herbalist and Midwife, in Botanical Medicine for Womenโ€™s Health. Every woman is unique and her menstrual cycle is as well, but if you have concerns that you may be bleeding too much during your period, it may be a good idea to learn what is considered within the โ€œnormalโ€ range.

In this article, we will discuss symptoms and causes of heavy menstrual bleeding/menorrhagia, potential risk factors to rule out, and natural remedies known to help, such as Vitex (Vitex agnus-castus), Maca root (Lepidium meyenii), DIM and natural progesterone cream.

What is Heavy Menstrual Bleeding?

Heavy menstrual bleeding is called Menorrhagia. It is defined as a woman who loses 5 ยฝ tablespoons (80 milliliters) or more of blood during their menstrual cycle (Botanical Medicine for Womenโ€™s Health).

Symptoms include:

  • A menstrual cycle that lasts beyond 7 days, though up to 10 is still considered within the normal range if there is not excessive bleeding
  • The need to change a sanitary pad or tampon every hour, for consecutive hours and days
  • The need to double up protection, even thick pads are soaked through
  • Bleeding through heavy pads while sleeping
  • Large blood clots
  • Feeling tired, fatigue or shortness of breath

Causes of Menorrhagia

Some women experience heavy bleeding during their menstrual cycle, but they are still ovulating and the heavy bleeding may be contributed to slight hormonal imbalances. Please know that one-two days of heavier bleeding can be normal, particularly days 2 and 3 of menstruation. Most women who are experiencing excessive bleeding during menstruation find it’s prolonged due to ovulatory dysfunction, in other words, they are not ovulating correctly. This is most often due to hormonal imbalance.

Women with a normal menstrual cycle usually have a balance of estrogen and progesterone. Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) is released by the pituitary gland which signals the follicles to release estrogen. This signals the endometrium (lining of uterus) to begin to grow in preparation for ovulation and hopefully conception and implantation of the fertilized egg. The continued release of adequate amounts of estrogen by the mature egg, once released at peak amount signals the release of Luteinizing Hormone (LH). This signals the release of progesterone and the endometrium begins to build up in preparation for implantation. The release of LH also signals the egg to be released; this is ovulation. If conception never occurs, the progesterone levels drop and the uterine lining sheds as menstruation.

In women who have menorrhagia there is a disruption in the release of the hormones. This hormonal imbalance may show up as excessive menstrual bleeding because one of the functions in the ovulatory cycle was not triggered and the endometrium may have grown excessively. If not enough estrogen is released to trigger LH, ovulation does not occur which also does not trigger enough progesterone. Adequate amounts of estrogen and progesterone are needed to regulate the amount of blood to be built up in the uterine lining. Insufficient progesterone levels are linked to heavy menstrual bleeding.

Other Risk Factors To Rule Out

Menorrhagia may also be contributed to other risk factors according to the Mayo Clinic. It is important to rule out other causes of excessive menstrual bleeding so that you can get a proper diagnosis, which will help you to know what healing methods will be most effective or appropriate. According to researchers at the Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, “Shapley, Jordan and Croft (2002) reported that of 22% of women over the age of 35 with heavy bleeding, only 7% discussed their symptoms with their doctor.” This is simply not a female fertility health issue to pass of as something you have to “just deal with” or ignore. It is important if you have excessive menstrual bleeding to see a doctor that can help you to find the causes for your particular case.

  • Uterine Fibroids and Polyps
  • Endometriosis
  • Blood disorders caused by coagulation issues, this may be genetic
  • Medications or herbs that thin the blood, anti-inflammatory medications, and anti-coagulants. Systemic Enzymes and Dong Quai (Angelica sinensis) used in excessive amounts may contribute to excessive bleeding and should not be used without guidance by women with heavy menstrual bleeding.
  • Adenomyosis is a condition in which the cells from the endometrium become embedded in the uterine muscle. This most often happens to women who are middle-aged and have had children.
  • Thyroid problems
  • Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
  • Rarely liver or kidney disease
  • Rarely cancer of the uterus, cervix or ovaries
  • Miscarriage, if this is your first time experiencing heavy menstrual bleeding there is a chance you are having a miscarriage.

Once you and your doctor have ruled out more severe risk factors, such as those above, you can work toward determining if your estrogen and progesterone levels are within normal range. It is also important to know if you ovulating. Remember that some women with heavy menstrual cycles are still ovulating, but those with extreme excessive bleeding not related to above risk factors usually are not.

Note: If you have been diagnosed with one of the above risk factors, please seek treatment for those particular needs or refer to our guides for natural remedies that may help with those conditions.

Natural Remedies to Help with Heavy Menstrual Bleeding

Addressing Hormonal Imbalance

Fertility Cleansing
Excess estrogens may โ€œcongestโ€ the liver and contribute to low progesterone and overall hormonal imbalance. Fertility Cleansing may help to promote hormonal balance by gently cleansing, toning and promoting regeneration of the liver cells. The uterine cleanse phase of fertility cleansing promotes healthy circulation to the uterus, strengthening the communication loop between the uterus, ovaries and endocrine system. This uterine portion of the Fertility Cleanse also works to tone and heal the uterus, which helps to expel old blood and tissues.

The Fertility Cleanse is a great way to create a foundation for proper hormonal balance.

Vitex
Vitex supports hormonal balance in the body by having an effect on the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis (hormonal feedback loop), correcting the problem at the source. Vitex has been found to help normalize ovulation and progesterone levels. Research Scientist Christopher Hobbs, Ph.D., L.Ac. A.H.G., shares in Vitex: The Women’s Herb of one 2-year study, Vitex was used to treat 51 women with Menorrhagia and Polymenorrhea (bleeding occurring often, with a less than 21 day cycle); 64% of the women reported improvement starting within 2 to 3 months of treatment . No side effects were reported.

Maca
Maca is a nourishing food for the endocrine system, aiding both the pituitary, adrenal, and thyroid glands (all involved in hormonal balance.) Maca helps to stimulate and nourish the pituitary gland, acting as a tonic for the hormone system. When the pituitary gland functions optimally, the entire endocrine system becomes balanced, because the pituitary gland controls the hormone output of the other three glands. Maca is a wonderful super food to support overall hormonal balance by providing support and nourishment for the systems that control hormone release and production.

DIM
DIM stands for diindolylmethane. DIM stimulates your body to metabolize bad estrogens. DIM increases specific aerobic metabolism for estrogen; this, in turn, multiplies the chance for estrogen to be broken down into good beneficial estrogen metabolites (2-hydroxy estrogens)(in all about DIM by Michael A Zeligs, MD and A. Scott Connelly, MD). When the good estrogen metabolites are increased by the DIM, this creates a reduction in bad estrogen (16-hydroxy estrogens) which have the potential to cause cancers, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, etc. Good estrogen metabolites protect the heart and brain with antioxidant activity. Increased bad estrogen may be promoted by obesity and exposure to man-made environmental toxins. DIM promotes healthy estrogen metabolism.

Progesterone
Because Menorrhagia is linked to progesterone deficiency, you may want to learn how natural progesterone cream can boost your natural progesterone levels.

Healing alternatives for heavy menstrual bleeding from the medical profession according to Women’s Health Expert Dr. Christiane Northrop include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), about which she says, “…I prefer to try natural progesterone first, if that doesnโ€™t work, a strong synthetic progestin such as medroxyprogesterone acetate (Provera) can help. (This is the only circumstance in which I recommend the synthetic.)”

Natural progesterone cream can help to supplement your bodyโ€™s own progesterone levels and lead you back to a state of natural balance.

Acute Support of Heavy Menstrual Bleeding Times

Note: These should only be used during heavy bleeding.

Slow Flow
Slow Flow is an herbal and nutrient formula to promote normal menses, and is to be used on heavy bleeding days. Slow Flow uses astringent herbs, uterine tonics, and nutrients to support normal menstrual flow. It combines these herbs: Ginger root, Cranesbill root, Periwinkle herb, Yarrow flower, Liferoot herb, Shepherd’s purse herb.

Heavy Bleeding Infusion (Tea)
Combine
2 parts dried Yarrow (astringent, reduces bleeding)
2 part Shepherd’s purse (astringent, reduces heavy uterine bleeding, prevents hemorrhage)
1 part dried Nettle leaf (high in iron, astringent, prevents hemorrhaging)
ยฝ part Hibiscus flower (high in Vitamin C, nice flavor addition)

Place a small handful of the mixture into a quart glass mason jar. Fill with just boiled water, cap tightly. Steep for 30-40 minutes. Drink 3-4 cups a day.

Heavy Menstrual Bleeding and Anemia

Women with heavy menstrual bleeding are at high risk for developing iron deficiency, which is a type of Anemia. It is important if you have heavy menstrual bleeding to supplement with a good wholefood iron supplement as well as eat a wholefood diet rich in iron. A wholefood iron supplement is easily absorbed by the body and does not cause constipation like most prescription and over the counter iron supplements.

Foods rich in iron

Heme Iron

 

  • bison
  • chicken
  • eggs
  • salmon
  • tuna
  • red meat

 

Non-heme Iron

 

  • blackstrap molasses
  • pumpkin and sunflower seeds
  • kidney, lima, Navy beans and lentils
  • tofu
  • Nettles (Urtica dioica)
  • Turkish apricots
  • amaranth
  • quinoa
  • Swiss chard
  • dark leafy greens (spinach)
  • hiziki (seaweed)

 

When to Seek Medical Care

It is important to seek the guidance of a medical professional if you are experiencing severe bleeding in excess of two menstrual pads completely soaked every 30 minutes. Excessive bleeding of this amount is considered hemorrhage; call your doctor right away if you are bleeding this much. Excessive bleeding can lead to death, so this matter is not something to take lightly.

It is also advised you see a medical doctor or naturopathic doctor to determine the cause of your heavy menstrual bleeding.

๐ŸŒฑ One of my favorite ways to support fertility and hormone health is through herbs. 

Over the past 20+ years that I have been an herbalist I have seen what herbs can do to help turn someoneโ€™s health around. 

When it comes to fertility there are a lot of different herbs that you can use. But they all have different actions. There is no one herb that fits all for fertility. 

That is one of the reasons I make herbal blends & formulas. 

Three of my favorite herbs are vitex, maca and shatavari, but they each have different effects on the body. 

So the key to success with fertility herbs is to first figure out what is going on in your body and then you can pick the right herbal formula for you. 

You can do this by charting your fertility (I have a lot of posts about fertility charting on my feed as well as my website) and also paying attention to your period. ๐Ÿฉธ

What most people donโ€™t understand about low progesterone

Many people don't fully grasp the complexities of low progesterone. 

There are three key factors to consider when aiming to support the body's progesterone production. 

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception #1 surrounding progesterone....

It's not widely known that its deficiency is often a result of inadequate ovulation. 

In order for progesterone levels to rise, the body must first ovulate, which triggers the transformation of the follicle into a corpus luteum, responsible for producing progesterone. 

If ovulation doesn't occur, low progesterone is likely to persist since the body doesn't require an increase in progesterone without ovulation.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception #2... the cause of low progesterone can be estrogen dominance.

There is a balance between estrogen and progesterone happening within the body and if there's too much estrogen this can affect a lot of different functions with hormone balance as it pertains to ovulation and progesterone production.

Considering the larger context of the entire fertility cycle is crucial when addressing progesterone production. Instead of solely focusing on supporting it, zooming out and examining all aspects of the cycle is necessary. 

This entails understanding the characteristics of the menstrual period, the length of the follicular and luteal phases, and awareness of ovulation patterns. 

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception # 3 Dietary habits contribute significantly to hormone production and balance within the body. 

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Misconception #4... Another aspect worth exploring is thyroid function, as it can also impact hormone equilibrium. Regular thyroid testing is therefore recommended to assess its influence on hormonal well-being.

What exactly are uterine fibroids? 

Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are noncancerous growths that develop in the muscular wall of the uterus.

These common benign tumors can vary in size and number, ranging from small pea-sized nodules to large masses that can distort the shape and size of the uterus.

Although the exact cause of uterine fibroids is unknown, certain factors like hormonal imbalances, genetics, and estrogen levels are believed to play a role in their development.

While some women with uterine fibroids may experience no symptoms at all, others may suffer from heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, urinary frequency, and various reproductive issues.

Understanding what uterine fibroids are and their potential impact on women's health is crucial for effective management.

๐Ÿฅš In the past, a common belief was that the only factor which determines ovarian and egg health was age. 

Based on new studies, we now know that this may not be true. ๐Ÿคฏ

There are many factors that can have an impact on the health of the ovaries and eggs including environmental factors, hormones in the diet, and stress, just to name a few.

In addition, having healthy fertility is based on many additional aspects to consider, including:
โžก๏ธ Proper circulation
โžก๏ธ A healthy fertility cycle
โžก๏ธ Balanced hormones
โžก๏ธ Healthy eggs

Egg health is one of the cornerstones of healthy fertility. 

The health of your eggs (ova) can affect whether or not fertilization and implantation will occur as well as the viability of a pregnancy.

During the cycle of an eggโ€™s journey towards ovulation, there is a window of opportunity, a period of time, when certain factors can affect the health of the eggs that are preparing for ovulation. โณ

This journey takes about 90 days. 

The steps you take today will impact the health of your eggs 3 months from now. 

That is why I talk so much about taking a MINIMUM of 90 days to prepare for pregnancy or IVF/IUI. 

๐Ÿ™‚ The good news is that there are steps you can take to help support the health of your eggs. There is too much info to put into this tiny caption butโ€ฆ.

So, how do we deal with this?

First, we cleanse and detoxify the body.

By supporting the body's natural ability to eliminate these compounds and excess hormones, we can significantly alleviate the hormonal imbalance.

The human body is in a constant state of detoxification, eliminating chemicals, excess hormones, and other compounds on a daily basis.

This is a natural process that's intrinsic to our biology.

However, based on my research and experience over the past 15 years, it's become apparent that regular cleanses and daily supportive measures can significantly enhance the body's natural detoxification abilities.

BPA is a major concern when it comes to hormone health, and this is just one of the many compounds found in plastics. 

I know it sounds daunting, but it is well worth  the effort to avoid using plastics containing BPA and other hormone-disrupting chemicals.

There are many alternatives available, such as glass or stainless steel containers and water bottles.

You can also look for products labeled "BPA-free" or "phthalate-free". Taking these small steps can help protect your health and the environment. 

But what can we do about our previous exposure? Cleanse, helping the body  naturally remove toxins. Supporting the liver in its ability is a great way to detoxify toxins like BPA, the Fertility Cleanse is great for this. Also eating a diet rich in whole foods and fiber is awesome as well.

Juicing is a game changer.

It's not just about squeezing a few oranges; it's about effortlessly infusing my diet with nutrient-rich veggies every single day.

Beyond the incredible flavors (hello, celery, ginger, turmeric, and a hint of pineapple ๐Ÿ), juicing is my fast-food substitute thatโ€™s both quick and nutritious.

The real game-changer? Investing in a quality juicer. It makes all the difference. My juicer is the J2 from Nama.
