11 Year Old Period Problems/questions

My 11 year old daughter has been getting her period regularly since last august. Her schedule seems to be regulating itself to about every 24 days (ugh!). Other than it coming a little more frequently that we'd like (it's a family trait with everyone except me) - she seems to be bleeding through just about everything we've tried. She's a petite girl - 5 ft 3 inches and maybe 115 lbs - the size of a small adult really. Her period lasts only 3-4 days but on the second day, it's HEAVY. Yesterday she bled through/around a good sized pad...
