Heavy menstruation, also known as menorrhagia, is usually the result of a hormonal imbalance. Another common cause of abnormal uterine bleeding is fibroid tumors. Other causes of excessive bleeding that your healthcare provider should consider include: cervical or endometrial polyps.
Polyps are often associated with abnormal uterine bleeding. They can cause bleeding in between periods (intermenstrual bleeding or spotting), irregular periods (metorrhagia), post-coital bleeding (bleeding following intercourse) and post-menopausal bleeding.
