Why is my period so heavy this month with clots?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

A sudden heavy period may be the result of normal hormonal fluctuations or a side effect of birth control. However, heavy periods can also indicate an underlying health condition. A person should talk to their doctor if they experience heavy bleeding or cramping that prevents them from completing normal activities

I'm about 18 weeks pregnant right now and a bit worried. I had a D&C procedure just a couple of months before conceiving again and experienced a minor uterine prolapse after that. I already have a 3-year-old daughter who was a normal delivery. This time, they put me on Susten injections because of low progesterone for the first three months, and now I'm on weekly Prolin injections. A few days back, I noticed a drop of blood after urinating, and my doctor immediately started me on Duvadilan retard 40mg and the antibiotic Forcef. My CRP level is quite high at 10, but there doesn't seem to be any urine infection. I'm really anxiousare these medicines safe to take during pregnancy?

I'm around five weeks pregnant and started having cramps yesterday, followed by bleeding that feels like a period. I'm concerned because I also had some tissue-like clot discharge and the bleeding hasn't slowed down. Is this something I should be worried about? Could you help me understand what's happening?

The symptoms you're experiencing, including cramps, bleeding, and a tissue-like clot discharge, are concerning and may indicate a miscarriage; immediately consult your obstetrician or visit the emergency room for a thorough evaluation, including an ultrasound, to confirm the status of your pregnancy and receive appropriate guidance and care.

I'm usually pretty regular with my periods, getting them on or before the due date. But this time, it's come a week late, and what's really worrying me is that I'm passing unusually large blood clots along with the normal bleeding. The amount of blood is also way more than I usually get. Is it normal to have clots like this, or should I be concerned about something?
