Controlling Heavy Bleeding With Fibroids

Controlling Heavy Bleeding With Fibroids

By:


If you are seeking information on controlling heavy bleeding with fibroids, then there are a few steps you can take to get some relief. There are different forms of bleeding with fibroids-sometimes you can experience breakthrough bleeding, at various times during the cycle, some women might experience bleeding at a specific time in the cycle whereas the most common problem is heavy bleeding at the time of the menstrual period itself, with some women finding that their periods are lasting for at least a week.

The reasons why this problem might occur include:-

* Fibroids result in an increased growth of blood vessels to supply the fibroids which results in a greater volume of blood flowing around the area
* Fibroids can result in blockages depending on their location. This can cause blood to back up behind the fibroids which then seems very heavy once released
* Uterine congestion can cause an alteration in the blood flow serving the uterus

If nothing is done to control heavy bleeding with fibroids, then progressive anemia can result, along with severe pain. There isn't a clear-cut step to manage the bleeding, but very often it is a case of trying a few different approaches, often in combination, which can work best.

To help with anemia, iron supplements can be very helpful and you may need to consider taking prescription-strength supplements depending on your iron levels. In addition, take vitamins A C and E, together with Folic Acid and Vitamin B12. Anti-inflammatory tablets, such as Ibuprofen can reduce the severity of cramping and help to reduce the bleeding itself, as can lying down with your legs raised.

Taking moderate exercise can help to reduce one-off episodes of cramping and when done regularly, exercise can help to reduce congestion within the area and thus help control heavy bleeding with fibroids. When exercising, finish off by lying on your side and pulling your legs up to your chest.

Of course, the best solution is to eliminate your fibroids completely as this will get rid of all associated symptoms, including bloating, discomfort, pain and bleeding and if you are prepared to make various changes to your lifestyle and your diet, then this is entirely possible.
