No.: While it may mean nothing serious is wrong, and will go away, we cannot tell from here. Other more serious problems may be the cause. Call your doc or get seen today. If you have dizziness, severe pain, or fever, heavy bleeding, (more than a pad soaked in an hour), go to an ER if you cannot reach your doc.

My lmp was 7/25/15. I had a positive hpt on 8/16 and positive blood test on 8/17. Today I woke up and had red spotting with a couple clots. Went to the ER and they said I had a uti and my beta hcg was 200. I haven't had any cramps, but my back has ached.

Last few months period comes slowly,over 3 days light spotting on&off,minimal cramps.when it comes its usually clots and heavy just one day and then stops alltogether.is it heavy because blood took too long to leave because it came slowly over days?
