How Much Clotting Is Too Much?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Fayetteville, TN

I had two days of really heavy cramps all around lower torso and legs. Then started my period roughly 36 hours ago. I've had very heavy clotting. I normally do have dime sized clots the first 24 hours or so, but these clots are all as big as quarters or more. They are there every time I go to the restroom every hour or so. It's a bit overwhelming and I'm not sure if I should be concerned. I've had no help from either of the two obgyn in my area for years now.

Mixed with menstrual blood may be bits of tissue from the uterine lining. Thus, what appears to be a blood clot may actually be a clump of shed tissues or a mixture of clots and tissues. These jelly-like globs are normal and usually nothing to be concerned about. The color of period blood clots can also vary.
