Period resumes: After age 30, a woman not on oral bcp's will have generally "heavier" periods, and although "regular", a clot may block the flow of blood for a day or so, then permitting blood already passed to flow again, but with a "brownish color" since it is now oxidized to some extent. This is not unusual, so oral bcp's may be a solution (if there are no contraindications), as periods will be much lighter.

What does it mean when you are on your period for two weeks and when it finally stops, three days later it randomly starts up again. It's never done this before.
Hi. My Dr suggested that I take Miralax every other day bc of no bm..I get a bm around 1 hour later, but on the directions it says to expect a bm in 1 to 3 days. Why do I get bm in such a shorter period of time..is this odd? When do I stop taking it?
