Thank you for your question. Have you been diagnosed with uterine fibroids? Heavy menstrual bleeding and prolonged menstrual periods, with menstrual bleeding lasting seven or more days are symptoms associate with uterine fibroids.
Considering that you are 46, it is possible that this change in your normal period pattern is the first sign of perimenopause. Fluctuations in estrogen levels cause menstrual irregularities.
