About heavy periods

Heavy periods means losing enough blood that it interferes with your life. Signs include soaking through a pad or tampon every hour or two, needing double protection, bleeding through to your clothes or bedding, passing clots bigger than a 10p coin, or bleeding for more than seven days.

Before treatment: the ultrasound queue

An ultrasound scan is one of the scans often used before treatment, and it is a separate NHS queue. Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust does not report its ultrasound waiting times to NHS England, so there is no scan wait to show for this hospital.

How we know this

NHS RTT data, July 2026.
Gynaecology as a whole, not heavy periods alone.
Wait or Pay is independent and is not the NHS. We show the routes and let you choose. Nothing here is medical advice.

How long will you really wait, and how could you go sooner?

Your free dashboard compares all four paths for heavy periods: wait, switch to a faster NHS hospital, part-private, or fully private. It names the faster hospitals near you, shows what going private would cost, and gives you letters ready to send. You can print it or save it as a PDF. Free, and nothing is locked or paid.
