A: I don’t think taking iron pills will make your periods lighter. But it seems like it is a supplement you definitely need if you have heavy periods.I have found that buying organic/chemical-free tampons and maxi-pad makes my period both lighter and shorter. Regular tampons and maxi-pads go through a bleaching process and it contains chemicals that make you bleed longer and heavier. When I went from using regular tampons I would have a heavy flow for about 3-5 days. Now that I use organic tampons, I have heavy flow for just one day and it lasts for 3 days and only some spotting for the next two days….It also seems you are dehydrated. You need to drink lots of water and electrolytes.Good luck. I hope this helps.
