Sudden Gush Of Menstrual Bleeding On Lying Followed By Severe Nausea. What Could The Cause Of Heavy Flow Be?
Last night I was laying in bed and all of a sudden felt a sudden small gush of menstruated blood come out after only laying down 20 mins. I rushed to the bathroom to clean up and went back to bed only to get severe nausea . I ve never been a heavy flow type nor had these symptoms before. I have regular periods and haven t had a recent pregnancy so what is the cause for this?

hi.
There are many cause for heavy flow. the most common cause is use contraceptives initiating forceful cycles and delay in cycles which cause forceful shedding of the endometrium. Sometimes it occurs without any cause. The nausea you had might of the lowering in the blood pressure and dehydration due to sudden gush.
Thanks
