Firstly, it's not OK to bleed heavily at any time - if you become anaemic you can get many horrible symptoms.
You can ask your doctor for medication to stem the bleeding but also check out Boots Pharmaceutical Cyklo-F Heavy Period Relief, which is just taken temporarily.
Also, start taking a natural iron tonic such as Floradix or Feroglobin to counter the blood loss
