Summary Heavy periods are a common cause of anaemia in women reproductive age. We compare the prevalence and heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) among United Kingdom Australia. Women aged 15–50 years were recruited through screening events conducted Australia from 2016 to 2024. In these cross‐sectional studies, self‐report questionnaires screened for HMB finger prick haemoglobin concentration (Hb) identified (Hb < 120 g/L). Of 1937 (United = 333, 1604), mean age was 28.5 ± 9.2 33.7% reported HMB. Kingdom, Hb 129.2 12.0 g/L 19.2% anaemic, which 59.4% had Australia, higher (134.4 12.2 g/L; p 0.001), with fewer being anaemic (9.7%; (30.3%; 0.001). Logistic regression analysis found that at greater risk (AOR: 2.144; 95%CI:1.545, 2.946; more (45.9% vs. 31.2%; 24.7% (299/1211) receiving intravenous iron; while those prior iron treatment less likely be 0.616; 95%CI: 0.372, 0.982; 0.0496). have than presenting development Kingdom.
