A member asked:

For about the first 6 days of my period, there was barely any blood, but there was a lot of clotting. from day 6 to day 9 (today) it is insanely heavy?

Abnormal menses: - Recommend iron supplement over the counter - urine pregnancy test - see PCP for bloodwork to eval for anemia etc - if negative for pregnancy, consider starting birth control to regulate periods, especially if sexually active
