annoying clots!
I came off of the pill around 5 months ago, and since then I keep getting large dark red thick clots for my period, which last around 3-4 days, I am not really bleeding normally since I stopped contraception, is this normal? It's very disabling as I'm just bleeding everywhere!! Thanks!

Hello,
This bleeding needs evaluation. Excessive amount or duration of menstrual flow, at more or less regular intervals is called menorrhagia.Sometimes it is associated with polymenorrhea(Frequent flow, cycles of ≤21 days)Causes of menorrhagia are Hypothyroidism, Endometrial proliferation or hyperplasia like ovarian tumor and polycystic ovarian disease,endometrial polyps and neoplasia,endometriosis,fibroids and uterine sarcomas.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
