    If she is going through a super tampon every tgen minutes, that is probably the danger point. The bleeding could be coming from somewhere other then her uterus. I would suggest a doctors visit immediately. I assume she hasn't gone through menopause yet? If she has, gone through menopause and this is happening, I would be extremely worried.

    No, there is nothing she do to stop it. She needs either an emergency room, or a doctor's visit. I would opt for the emergency room.
