How to calculate next period date

Watch your flow.Very heavy menstrual flows can be an indication of other problems. It may even lead to its own problems, such as anemia and lethargy. While you track your cycle, keep an eye on what days your flow is heavy, normal, and light.

In most cases, you don’t need to measure the quantity of blood.

Instead, estimate by looking at what type of menstrual products you are using (super tampons, regular pads, etc.) and how often you need to change out those products.^[6]

• If, for example, you have to change a super tampon every hour, you may have an irregularly heavy flow.
• Keep in mind that most women will have heavier days and lighter days.

  It is normal to have different levels of flow on different days.

• The severity of flow varies greatly from person to person. A heavier or lighter cycle isn’t inherently problematic. Instead, watch for very heavy cycles or completely skipped periods, which may be an indicator of another medical issue.^[7]
