Heavy periods.

You're soaking through pads or tampons quickly, maybe needing to double up or change every hour or two, and it's affecting your plans. When menstrual bleeding exceeds about 80 millilitres per cycle, it's considered heavy, and it can sometimes signal anything from hormonal shifts to fibroids or bleeding disorders.
