Hi,
Thanks for the query.

Usually lupride is used to control the bleeding and heavy bleeding is not a common side effect of lupride.
So you once consult gynecologist, get examined to find out the possible cause for your problem.
Take tablets to control the bleeding.
After that you can go for additional dose of hormones to control the bleeding in case of hormonal imbalance.
Usually progesterone tablets will help in controlling the bleeding in these type of cases.

Take care.
