I am experiencing the same thing now, Had the same tests done the other week and they found nothing did biopsy, ultrasound, blood work, everything possible and found nothing this has been going on for the past year now, I was told I could do hysterectomy, or the ablation procedure, or pills, so right now I am going to start Pradaxa to see if that helps, but I do a lot of walking and standing on my job and all day thing so not sure if that makes it better or now, I notice if I rest or just lay down for a couple of hours it slow down but not completely gone anywhere, but so thinking about the hysterectomy to just stop this completely.

Hello. I have been having very heavy period in the regular but today I passed a clot the size of my palm. What do I do?

There most be something going on there, it might be minor or major issue, we dont know that yet but this is not Normal. I have been suffering from non stop bleeding since 3 years, it DOES NOT stop if i dont take the Birth control Pill. I have been to the point where my Hbg level dropped to 3.0 and was taken to ER room. All the tests that i have done so far is negative, i even saw hematologist and there is nothing wrong. However, i was told that my cervix was very small and that my muscles are very tight which is why i have VERY hard time doing the annual exam. I have been seeing a specialist but the cause of this Extremely heavy bleeding has not been identified yet. No fibroid, no cysts, no bleeding disorders then what is it???

Sorry you went through this, that doctor sounds completely ridiculous! I hope you got a second opinion and perhaps saw a women. I am sure it was something more (like fibroids perhaps?) and that male doctors especially are more likely to underplay our experiences as women. Hoping you are well.

I started getting heavy periods and large clots this year. I passed a clot as big as my palm which had me screaming out in pain and doubling over. I too had to sit on the toilet and that was my first experience with that size clot. I noticed every time I had that horrible pain it was because I was passing the clot. When I told my dr she understood what I was saying. I think maybe you need to switch doctors.

So I thought I was alone in my issue of very large clots but from what I've read I'm not however, I have additional symptoms that I haven't seen mentioned here. So about 5 years ago I started having really heavy periods, before that mine were always pretty normal. When they started to get heavier it was more just annoying until the clotting started. I used to wear tampons but it seemed that the blood had thickened to the point that my tampon could not absorb it and so the blood would pool above it and cause such severe pain that it would stop me dead in my tracks and drop me to the floor. Once I would take out my tampon I would literally have to push out the blood like I was giving birth, I would pass several very large clots. After I'd pass them all the pain would subsise. I figured I just needed to stop using tampons and it would go away and it did for a few months. Now it's happening again but I'm using pads. If I'm sitting I don't bleed at all but I will start hurting again like I did before. When I stand up its like I'm hemorrhaging and I will have to go to the bathroom to push out clots again to get relief from the pain. Has anyone else ever experienced anything like this before?

I am here because I had the worst period experience of my life today! I'm 47, have two kids (youngest is 19), and had a procedure 2 1/2 years ago similar to to having your tubes tied so I cannot be pregnant. I also had a procedure where the dr puts a balloon into your uterus with hot wax in it, and it's supposed to burn your walls so they don't shed and you shouldn't have periods after that. That was 1 1/2 years ago and since then my periods have been horrific! Very heavy bleeding, small clots and very painful. Two months ago was very heavy and very painful. Last month I barely spotted. My period started yesterday and it was heavy. Today it was heavy and very painful. I went to work and as the day went on the pain continued. I changed my tampon and there was a clot aboutvtge size of a large gumball. I while later the cramps got way worse and I got got really nauseous. I got clammy, dizzy, week and felt like I was going to pass out. I left work and as I was driving home (which I shouldn't have done) both of my hands started tingling like they were asleep. I got home and sat on the toilet (hardly any blood on my tampon at all) and I passed a clot about the size of an egg. As soon as it passed I felt 100% better. No more cramps! The bleeding has gone back to being heavy. I'm afraid to put a tampon in thinking maybe that's causing the clot...or making it worse. I've been warm (I'm usually cold a lot) but I would t call it hot flashes lately so I chalked it up to peri-menopausal. It is a relief to hear others experience clots too, although I'm sorry for you all! Anyone with the tingly hands?

I have the same exact problem when it's almost time for my period to end I get horrible cramps and then I pass blood clots and then I have heavy bleeding for about a day or two extra and then it would finish

I am post menopausal now, but I suffered like that after I had my first child at 23 until I turned 53. Sometimes, I would leave home for work with three overnight pads on around 8:00 a.m., by 9:00 a.m. I would have flooded all three pads and liver chunks would fall out. Some times the clots were a full hand size. I ran into an amazing female Doctor and she prescribed an amazing pill call Meclomen for me It made my periods very normal. (No clots) i took those pills for about two years and they recalled the pills and took them off the market. I was back to the excessive clotting and bleeding. I never went to the hospital, I wish that I had gone cause sometimes things were just unbearable. I have a 29 year old daughter who has one child and it is starting up with her. My prayers to anyone who suffers like this. Every male doctor wanted me to have a hysterectomy and I did not want that. Bless you whom ever you are.

This morning while at the gym I felt some pressure.. I am on day 2 of my cycle. I have a super tampon and a pad on.
When I went to the bathroom I passed a 2 x 4 large blood gel like mass (through the super tampon)
I have never seen anything like this! I emailed my doctor but she is out of the office.
Is this normal?? I am 39 I have heavy periods
