I was wondering if anybody could help me with this issue.
for the longest time I've been having abnormal period cycles. I could go a day or two, or maybe a couple of days without bleeding, maybe a little spot and there but it seems to go into a regular period. This happens none stop. The coloring also changes. It goes from Red to brown (Right now it's brown) and I often have blood clots. I was wondering if anybody heard of this condition and if theirs a name to it? __________________

Hey there.
> Abnormal uterine bleeding or excessive bleeding (Menorrhagia) is menstrual bleeding that that occurs at regular intervals, but lasts for excessively long periods of time. Heavy menstrual bleeding occurs generally when you soak through enough sanitary protection products to require changing more than every hour or two, or when you have a period which lasts over seven days. Other symptoms of menorrhagia include spotting or bleeding between periods or during pregnancy. Menorrhagia is the most common type of abnormal uterine bleeding. http://womenshealth.about.com/cs/abn...erinebleed.htm > Women are often are frightened when they discover dark clumps of tissue in their menstruation. Dark brown or black clots in your menstruation are usually a part of the endometrium (uterine lining) shedding and nothing to be concerned about. http://womenshealth.about.com/od/men...menstruati.htm I'd mention it when you go see your doctor next. It might be possible that you have some kind of infection so it would be good for them to rule that out. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
