Before I got on birth control, I had heavy periods with blood clots. Blood clots are a perfectly normal part of having a period. The lining of your uterus needs to be shed!

This month I had my period for 4 days as usual... Seven days later I start passing Huge blood Clots. The flow is heavier then my heaviest day on my period... Whats going on?????

I am 38. I pass a lot of blood clots during my periods, large and small. Is it normal? I also have painful periods and lasts for six days. Is there anyway to stop periods in 3 or 4 days? Please suggest a remedy for this.

I do have blood clots but never I see this large before during my cycles in the past. Should I just wait couple more days and see?

The placenta is a lump of clotted blood that can be quite dark. If you are experiencing painful heavy periods, go see a doctor. If you are not experiencing other symptoms, then this is probably normal for you.

I am a 44 year old woman who has never had a full pregnancy and I am now having horrible periods with very heavy bleeding for about 2 days with large heavy clots of blood and very sharp cramps, I have started taking birth control pills to help the bleeding but about two days into my period the heavy bleeding and sharp pains happen. what does it mean?

I am having large blood clots and having to change super tampons every 3 to 4 hours. is this normal or should I seek medical attention?

I had my tubes tied in 2005 and before that my periods lasted for about a week with very little pain and always regular. After I had the procedure I have periods that are very heavy, last for about 4-5 days and sometimes I have 2 periods in a month. in the last 6-9 months I have also been experiencing severe cramps and pass very large clots, and I feel a pressure in my pelvis that is very similar to when I was in labor. Is this something that some women experience or should I be concerned?

About five in the morning I felt wet so I decided to go take a shower. Went to the bathroom first and I was pushing, a big red bloob came out. Ive had blood clots before in my time but never this huge.I could fit it in the palm of my hand. I flushed it took a shower. Now I feel like I have to push again and the bleeding has not stopped. Im just very confussed and concerned. I cant be pregnant cause my tubes are tied.

However, regular heavy periods justify a trip to the doctor to check your blood counts. Many women become accustomed to heavy periods, considering them to be normal. Over time, though, the excess monthly blood loss leads to anemia, potentially causing weakness or fatigue. If you ever feel something's not right with your period, see your health care provider. What causes menstrual blood problems? Changes in color and thickness of menstrual blood are often normal.

OK A WHILE BACK I HAD A VERY HEAVY PERIOD, IF WAS NOT ONLY HEAVY BUT LARGE BLOOD CLOTS APPEARED TOO. MY PERIOD IS NEVER NORMAL SOMETIMES I WILL COME ON BACK TO BACK FOR MAYBE 2 OR 3 MONTHS AND THEM I MAY SKIP 2 TO 3 MONTHS. I HAVE ALSO SKIPPED AS MANY AS SIX MONTHS BEFORE DOES ANYONE HAVE OR HAS HAD THESE SAME PROBLEMS.

t worry too much blood clots and heavy periods are a common thing, but nothing you can do to stop it unless you get on birth control to stabilize your periods ask your doctor about it

They are heavy usually have to change my tampon every 3 hours with no leaking nothing with Lil clots. Some times the blood would be darker then usual. But the one I'm on now is very very heavy I'm bleeding through a tampon every hour hour and a half I have to wear a pad as well very bad cramps. Bright red. And the clots like always. Is this something serious.

Heavy bleeding with a lot of blood clots can come from fibroids. Make an appt. with your gyn and have them give you a TV/Us. Also, you might try posting on the women's health forum for more responses from women with a similar problem. Good luck.

Just so we are clear, fibroids are tumors in your uterus not blood clots. Fibroids may cause excessive bleeding which can lead to blood clots but fibroids won't pass through you. They need to be treated by a doctor. The bottom line being you really need to make an appointment with your gynocologist and get checked out to find out exactly what is causing your symptoms and the next steps you need to take to correct the issue. Take care and keep us posted on how you are doing.

I'm 25 and for the past few years, I've had very heavy cycles with large blood clots. Sometimes I have to change my pads multiple times in an hour because the blood simply gushes. It's uncomfortable and makes it very difficult to leave the house since I do bleed through the pads and thus bleed through clothing very, very easily. The blood clots vary in size as well. Some are small, some are quite large. I'm not quite sure what I should do or what it could be?

I just turned 39 and my periods for the last year have been heavy and I've been having real dark and big blood clots, is this something to worry about? What should I do?

d start out really heavy with clots. Big clots or small clots. Then get lighter. Some periods without clots at all. In these forms it should be normal. Nothing to worry about.

Hi Dana, I don't know if this has any thing to do with you or not since I'm 51 and pregnant, but here it is for what it's worth. I had been having very heavy periods with lots of large clots for the past few years. When I would mention it to my doctor (not an OB) he would just say it had to do with my approaching menopause. Oddly I had some hot flashes every now and then 4 or 5 yrs ago, but then they stopped totally and my periods continued.
