i had my first depo provera shot about three weeks ago. That same day during intercourse the condom broke. The shot wasnt supposed to kick in until a full 24 hours after the shot so i took a plan b (morning after) pill immediately. last week i realized that my period was five days late and when it finally came, about day 2, i had a really bad cramp. io went to the rest room and found some type of skin, membrane, tissue or something-like, not normal vaginal discharge in my pad and almost had a heart attack. Do you have any idea what that could be and should i be worried? This is my fourth day of my cycle and it hasnt happened again.
The exact same thing happened to me two days ago and I freaked out, too. I went to my doctor the very next morning and asked her about it. It turns out that sometimes, when our hormones are in flux (often as a result of starting/switching birth control as I did), the lining of the uterus can come out it different sizes. Apparently, that fleshy membrane-like tissue is just the lining of the uterus that is normally flushed out during menstruation in bits and pieces and with the presence of new hormones in our body, things can just happen differently. She said that it won't necessarily always happen like this because my (our) bodies will eventually adjust to the added hormones.
SO, don't worry! You're fine! You're bodies are doing exactly what they are supposed to be doing every month...just a bit differently this time.
Well, w/in an hour, the menstrual pain was so awful and centered vaginally and in my anus. It felt like labor and it lasted abt 2-3 hours. I was screaming so bad, we had to close our windows. Next, came diarrhea for abt 1 hour, then a wave of nausea. I vomited 6 times and during that, I expelled 2-3 clots onto the floor. When I turned, I saw a heap of thick, gray strands, w/ not too much blood.
Once I was able to pull things together, I was able to call my Dr's colleague. He told me it was endometrial tissue, too and thatt he pharmacist was right abt the cortisone shots. he told me to watch myself through the evening: if I saturated a pad every hour, for 2-3 hours, to go to the ER. I was fine bc the bleeding actually lightened up.
But the next 3 days, I have felt like my insides were a punching bag. In the beginning, hard to breathe, walk and talk; couldn't do anything. By now, it's not too bad.
When I see my orthopedist, I need to tell her what happened. I was surprised she didnt tell me what the possibilities might be bc I told her I was going through dysmenorrhea and other issues and I was scheduled for a hysterectomy on June 10. She should have mentioned the potential side effects.

This is the same thing that is happening to me and i am 9 weeks pregnant. I was very worried that i was in the process of a miscariage but a couple days ago i found out that my baby is fine. I am still getting these tissue like discharge when i go pee and I am still worried. I also can not find an answer on here and I don't think my doctor understands what i am trying to explain.
Hi I take HRT as I'm menapousal, and Ive had this white hard subtance discharge from my vagina. Ive had it now for 2 weeks, am worried about it. I had a DNC about 6 weeks ago as I had been bleeding for quite a while. I don't know if this ties up with this.
Ive had what looks like tissue in my period 2 months in a row. Ive had pain during intercourse since my son was born 3 years ago and ovulation is painful for me. The tissue in my period the first they were the size of a pea (i had 2 at once) but my last period it was almost an inch long. Kinda felt like raw meat (i know graphic but i cant think of a better description). I am starting to worry now tho. My last period lasted 2 weeks and now I am ovulating and found some of the tissue in my urine. I didn't hurt or burn or anything like that, but earlier on today I had shooting pains around my overy. Which as I mentioned i get often so thought nothing of it. Have any of you experienced this?
