Hi there.

A little TMI but I am so worried about this..

A few days ago I started a light period. On the second day I went to the bathroom and wiped something that really shocked me. It looked like a huge piece of sack/tissue (not a clot) and it was an unusual shape with a round bulge at the top and three 'leg' like shapes coming out of it. It was a dark pink/red colour and I could see purple lines inside it, like veins. It must have been about 3-4 inches in length. I was so embarrassed I threw it away instead of going to see a doctor and my period has continued as normal without any further complications but does anyone know what this could have been? This can't be normal?

I am in my 20's, I am sexually active and I have had no children.
