For some women, periods lighten and decrease; for others it's just the opposite. If your bleeding is abnormally heavy, you may want to see your physician. Some doctors will do a blood FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) test to determine your hormone levels. Menstruation is a delicate balance, requiring your hypothalamus, pituitary, and ovaries to send signals to each other via hormones. In perimenopause, these signals aren't sent correctly and can result in menstrual irregularities. You’re probably in perimenopause.
