1000+ verified doctorsConcerns About Prolonged Menstrual Bleeding - #48815
I am asking for a friend of mine. She is 22 years old she is experiencing alot of bleeding and period longer than it should be. She got her period on 17 jan but her period is still going on (till 26 jan) . She is worried and scared, wondering what could be the cause. She has recently travelled for 3 straight days while in her period. She is on a bit heavier size weightwise and she also told me she has experienced this one time before but after taking some local medicine prescribed by local doctor it stopped until now. She took clot tablet and used sundari kalp for few months. So she was wondering what could be the cause and should be worried visiting the doctor. ALSO if possible a permanent solution to resolve this issue (PS SHE LIVES ALONE AND ON HER OWN , SO PLEASE TRY YOUR BEST TO GIVE ADVICE AND NOT SCARE HER. SHE IS SCARED AS IS.

Doctors' responses
Hlo,
👉 This pattern most commonly points to hormonal imbalance, not something dangerous. Common triggers:
Physical stress (3 days of travel during periods absolutely counts) Weight-related estrogen imbalance Temporary ovulation disturbance Uterine lining shedding slowly instead of all at once This is called menorrhagia / dysfunctional uterine bleeding, and it is very common in young women.
Urgent consultation if -
She is soaking 1 pad every hour for several hours Feeling dizzy, faint, breathless Passing large clots repeatedly Bleeding continues beyond 14 days If none of these are happening → this is not an emergency
Kindly do investigation must now- 1) USG pelvis and adnexa 2) Hb, cbc
Internal medicine -
1️⃣ Ashokarishta Dose: 15 ml + equal water Twice daily after meals Duration: 2–3 months ✔️ Strengthens uterus, regulates bleeding
2️⃣ Lodhra Churna Dose: ½ teaspoon With: Honey or warm water Twice daily ✔️ Excellent for heavy bleeding
3️⃣ Praval Pishti (if bleeding is heavy) Dose: 125 mg Twice daily with honey ✔️ Cooling, stops excess bleeding ❗ Avoid if constipation or kidney issues
4️⃣ Continue Sundari Kalp Dose: 1 tsp at night with warm milk ✔️ Hormonal balance + strength
5️⃣ If anemia or weakness later: Drakshasava 15 ml + water once daily
Diet & daily care (VERY important)
What to AVOID (temporarily): Spicy food Fried/junk food Coffee, alcohol Late nights
What to ADD: Pomegranate Dates, raisins Coconut water Rice, dal, cooked vegetables Plenty of fluids 🧘♀️ Light rest, no heavy exercise for now

Thank you so much
Just few things, it’s been more than 14 days but —she is not soaking 1 pad every hour for several hours, —Feeling dizzy, faint, breathless are sometimes not all the time like barely present — And not passing large clots, just normal clear bleeding.
Is this still the same thing you suggest (hormonal issue) or something more
Firstly do investigation - 1) CBC - mainly I want to know recent hb level 2) USG pelvis with adnexa
And start with these medicines
Don’t worry Take Ashokarista 20ml bd Usheersava 20ml bd Posex forte 1tab bd enough
