description Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (HMB) is a common gynaecological presentation, which can affect girls and women throughout their reproductive years and cause significant health issues. This review discusses the most recent evidence-based management of HMB and strategies for providing safe and effective care during the Covid 19 pandemic. Thus protocols and recommendations for HMB, developed to tackle the Covid 19, could become the ‘new normal’ for both primary and secondary care. There is a need for administrative changes, improved technology and effective communication to adapt these new recommendations.
