Menorrhagia : Heavy periods, also called menorrhagia, is when a woman loses an excessive amount of blood during consecutive periods. Menorrhagia can occur by itself or in combination with other symptoms, such as menstrual pain (dysmenorrhoea). Heavy bleeding does not necessarily mean there is anything seriously wrong, but it can affect a woman physically, emotionally and socially, and can cause disruption to everyday life. Symptoms The signs and symptoms of menorrhagia may include: • Soaking through one or more sanitary pads or tampons every hour for several consecutive hours • Needing to use double sanitary protection to control your menstrual flow • Needing to wake up to change sanitary protection during the night • Bleeding for a week or longer • Passing large blood clots with menstrual flow • Restricting daily activities due to heavy menstrual flow • Symptoms of anemia, such as tiredness, fatigue or shortness of breath Medications • First line • IntraUterine System insertion • Second Line • Tranexamic acid an antifibrinolytic agent • Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) • Combined oral contraceptive pills to prevent proliferation of the endometrium • Third line • Oral progestogen (e.g. norethisterone), to prevent proliferation of the endometrium • Injected progestogen (e.g. Depo provera) • Other options • Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists (e.g. Goserelin)
Concurrent use with ACE inhibitors, potassium-sparing diuretics, potassium salts, and drugs that may increase serum potassium (e.g. ciclosporin, eplerenone) may increase the risk of hyperkalaemia. Concomitant use with NSAIDs may decrease glomerular filtration synergistically; acute renal failure may occur. Increased serum concentrations of lithium and toxicity when used with angiotensin receptor antagonist have been reported; avoid concomitant use of lithium and Olmesartan.
