Hi there, I ve had my period for about a week but it was almost over when last night I noticed I was bleeding very heavily.. going through two-three tampons per hour.. this continued all night, I barely got any sleep because I was constantly having to go to the bathroom to change my tampon because the bleeding was so heavy.. this is VERY abnormal for me as I usually have light periods. I went to a clinic this morning just to make sure everything was alright and because I have no other symptoms they sent me home. I just went to the bathroom right now and took out a tampon and was bleeding heavily and I realized that there was another string there so I pulled out another tampon that I didn t know I had in already.. I never felt it at all and I have no idea how long it has been in there for. I don t feel any other symptoms and it didn t have a bad smell or anything.. but would that have caused the abnormally heavy bleeding?
