Skin in my blood clots?

by Sarak0514, Jul 05, 2008 05:52PM
I am taking birth control and I currently spotting. My spotting has turned into almost a full on period. I am not worried about this, what I am concerned about is that I found an extra large blood clot in the toilet paper. I was really concerend because it looked like it was part of my Labia. I had Labiaplasy about 2 years ago and I thought I had last some of it, but when I looked down I was fine, no missing pieces, nothing. Is it normal to have blood clots that look like skin and to be that big? I have never had this before so I am really worried.

As long as you are not pregnant shouldn't be a big deal.

Your birth control is not effective.
You shouldn't be spotting and your dose needs to be adjusted.

Of course you still will have a period while on your 7 day "blanks" and may have a little bleeding proir.

Anyway, your labia isn't going to fall off. And blood clots can look like anything.

Make sure you've had your pap smear. BCP's will not protect you against STD's and talk to your OB about your pills.
