A member asked:

Hi:). i started running yesterday for the first time in two months. yesterday i experienced intense period cramps after running, which was followed by bleeding and some blood clots. last year this didn't happen, but i did attend gym more at the time?

Period cramps ?: Your exercise regimen has nothing to do with menstrual cramps or amount of bleeding or clots formed. This period was due to happen anyway, and with clots, sometimes uterine contractions are strong to force the clots out of the uterus, which can accentuate the severity of the pain with such contractions.
