Hi Miradagr8,

Sometimes periods will just be off... maybe with timing, maybe with amount of flow, maybe with duration. It could be just a one off, but if you continue to have heavy bleeding, you could check with your doctor. There are a number of possible reasons, for example uterine polyps, that can cause unusual bleeding.

Your doctor would likely do an ultrasound to see if anything can be detected visually.
