I'm 31 and my last 3 periods have been really heavy i'm losing clots got to change every half hour. what could be wrong.?

Many options: Can be normal. Are your periods still on time and just heavy or has the schedule changed too? Short course of birth control pills can often make it right. Could be polyps or fibroids, but less likely at your young age. Check with your obgyn and good luck!
