When a young woman begins her menstrual as a teen, it usually doesn't start off heavy but over the years our cycle change. As I got older, I noticed that my cycle changed according to what I ate. If I ate meat the week before or during my cycle, the flow would be heavy and full of blood clots. If I ate raw foods , then my flow was lighter. I now make it a habit to eat plant based and vegan dishes, so that I don't have a heavy cycle.
My cycles were so heavy I had to use tampons , maxi pads , bed protectors and I have to take 2-3 iron tablets to slow down the menstrual flow every day during my cycle. After my cycle, I take 1-2 iron tablets so that I can replenish the blood loss during my cycle.
My life did not change until I started using a menstrual cup . My first day is normally just spotting, 2nd day the flow is light pink, the 3rd and 4th day is a steady flow (menstrual cup time) 5th day it starts to slow down. Because I have fibroids, my cycle can last up to 14 days but it's mostly spotting not a constant flow.
