Very heavy bleeding/clotting during ...

First, please forgive me if I get the exact time periods wrong as these experiences are beginning to run together. I waited 75 days post-removal for my first REAL period. Now I'm on my 16-18th day of an extremely heavy period. I've had clotting on and off which didn't concern me much as I read a bunch about that here. Today I passed a clot larger than a golf ball and the cramping and bleeding only seems to be getting worse (or at least steadily heavy). I'm starting to feel other things, but at this point are not sure if they are physical or anxiety-related. I understand that my body needs to flush out after 2+ years of not having a period, but at what point to I react instead of just wait? Any ideas? Thank you!
Mrs. Beetle

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,375,329I'll be watching for replies on this one, too. I am 3- wweks post after only having it in for a year and I can't even leave the house today. I also had an ablation and I was under the understanding I wouldn't be needing the ultra tampons anymore. Also, I pretty much bled nonstop when I had the mirena although once I had 18 clear days in a row, usually just 4.

This is a reply to # 1,375,329I feel for you. I've had mine 27 days ago and dreading another one tomorrow. It was really bad and I left work and stayed home 2 days. I couldn't walk without feeling sick and the amount of blood that came out was scary (I didn't have that much during my both first or second labour). But to be honest there was nothing that big! I would suggest to go to a doctor ASAP, because a size of a golf ball is pretty big. Even after you have a baby they say nothing bigger than a toonie, but not that big. Stay strong and please take care of yourself!

GETTING THE CYCLE BACK IN ORDER
Since periods are an inconvenience, some women ask, “what is wrong with not having them?” It is not that periods are good in themselves but rather that regular menses are a sign that hormonal mechanisms are functioning properly.
Irregular periods occur commonly with PCOS because ovulation does not occur every month as it is supposed to. The most common pattern is for periods to come infrequently. However some women with PCOS have prolonged and heavy periods. When ovulation does not occur, the ovary does not make progesterone during the second half of the cycle. Progesterone is necessary to prepare the uterus to have a normal period. When months go by with no period, the endometrium (uterine lining) can get thicker and thicker. Then when a period does come, either on its own or from medication, it is like having several at once: heavy, sometimes with clots and often crampy.- Re: Very heavy bleeding/clotting dur... MrsToe

This is a reply to # 1,376,618I have been wondering about my cycle. I am about 3 weeks post removal, and I went directly on the pill. I started spotting today, and I noticed a small amount of cramping yesterday. I think it may be done because my spotting has stopped. I started my pill on a Thursday, and they suggested that I go ahead and start my new pack on Sunday so I will be "Sunday Start". I decided to just take my "fake pills" until Thursday and keep on keepin on. My husband should be getting an vasectomy in the next few months and then I will be FREE!!!
I would definitely suggest you call the OBGYN about that clot. That is rather large and I remember after having my children they said that anything larger than a quarter I had to bring it in so they could look at it (which it actually had to do... ewe). I hope this will be your only bad one. Good luck!
