During the middle of my period I notice a dicharge that looked like a thin layer of skin with bright red blood. I have had my period for over 15 years and have never seen anything like this. My doctor seems to that that I have endo. About 6 years ago I had my tubes tied and have had problems every since. Does anyone know that this could be?

Well, if you had endometriosis, I am not sure you would be passing pieces of skin. When you have endometriosis, the lining that grows on other organs have no place to go and it can’t come out through vagina if this is what you had in mind.
What tests did you have? Laparoscopy is the only treatment that could diagnose endometriosis with certainty.

What kind of troubles are you experiencing since having your tubes tied? Has the skin-like discharge been appearing since you had tubes tied or has the problem started just recently?
The only thing I can think of is blood clots but they are usually darker in color. They look like small pieces of liver (it may look like skin to you) and they appear when our periods are heavy and when there aren’t enough anticoagulants produced to prevent blood from clothing.

Are you experiencing problems like severe pain during periods, pain during sex or pelvic pain. These are the problems my cousin had when she was diagnosed with endometriosis but I heard that some women don’t have any symptoms what so ever.

Did anyone find out what this is? I went to the ER last night with what felt like contractions and bursts of watery blood and dark red clots, they stopped the pain and said all my tests were normal sent me off with naproxen and find a GYN on Monday. I had adenomyosis diagnosed 5 years ago but had no problems since my D&C at that time. That Dr. didn't reopen after the hurricane. I had my 2nd Depo shot 5 days ago I was bleeding then and continue. Today now I found long pieces of skin looking tissue, flesh colored, in with bright red blood. Has anyone gotten a diagnosis?

I CALLED AND SPOKE W/ MY OBGYN AND SHE SAID THAT THAT IS COMPLETELY NORMAL. MUCUS CAN BUILD UP AND FORM SOMEWHAT OF A MEMBRANE AROUND YOUR BLOOD. IT'S A TYPE OF BLOOD CLOT. SHE SAID IF I CONTINUE PASSING THEM OR IF I RUN A FEVER TO CALL HER BACK. SO I SUGGEST THE SAME THING FOR YOU.
