Heavy or prolonged menstrual periods, or menorrhagia, are the most common type of abnormal bleeding from the uterus. Periods are considered heavy if there is enough blood to soak a pad or tampon every hour for several consecutive hours.
If blood clots are found with the period, this should not be a cause for concern as many girls and women experience this as part of their regular menstruation.Typically these clots tend to occur on the days of the heavy flow, may vary in size and clots may appear darker than menstrual blood.lots with your periods are a result of the physiological changes that occur during the course of the menstrual cycle. The lining of the uterus thickens as a result of hormone action, primarily estrogen and progesterone, and subsequently sloughs off if pregnancy does not occur.
