A member asked:

Last month's period came with thick blood clots. this month's period came 5 days late. would there be a problem or something going on?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely normal: What you described seems to fit within the variations in menstrual periods. Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause..
