heavy lifting in the period
Heavy lifting or dragging will cause excessive bleeding?
Reply:I pretty much agree with JoJo, but I don't know if anyone knows for sure. Basically, if there isn't anything wrong with you, the blood and tissue is built up in your uterus during the weeks before your period and it comes out in that final week. Perhaps lifting can cause it to come out faster – I think some women may like that idea to get it all out sooner, but I don't think it would really work.
If you are dealing with any kind of abnormality, like fibroids, it is a good idea not to push it. My doc has told me to rest with my feet up when I am experiencing heavy bleeding. In my case, any increase in my blood pressure from stress or activity will result in more blood loss. I really do not think this is the case with a normal period.

No, not if your periods are normal. In a normal woman there is only a certain amount of fluid that will be discharged during her period.
