Answers:
You absolutely need to see a doctor! This is not normal. I had heavy periods but never like that. Could you have been pregnant? If so, it could be a miscarriage - but either way - GET TO A DOCTOR!

Get to a doctor! You are losing way too much blood!

GET TO A DR. I HAD THE SAME HAPPEN TO ME AND I HAD A MISCARRIAGE. GO NOW.

You should make an appointment with your gynecologist ASAP. You could have had a pregnancy and a misscarriage. If you continue to bleed you could become anemic. So please go to the doctor. In the mean time, eat plenty of things to raise your iron count. Like broccoli,brussel sprouts, red meat.

This is definatly not normal. You need to go to the doctor and find out the problem ASAP!

It could also be a thyroid problem. This happened to my sister and it is easily taken care of through medication.
Please see a doctor.
