Is there treatment for heavy periods?

Through his years of experience as a gynaecologist, Dr Sam Daniels understands how debilitating heavy menstrual bleeding can be, and has seen the impact this condition has on quality of life.

A thorough examination at your first consultation may involve a discussion about your symptoms and how your periods affect your day-to-day activities. Dr Sam may also organise investigations such as a pelvic ultrasound to look for uterine polyps or fibroids, a full blood count, iron studies to check for anaemia, or a biopsy of your uterus to check for cancerous changes.
