A member asked:
I have been on birth control and my periods have become light over the past months and i release big blood clots. why does this happen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If irregular : periods, this is related to irregular ovulation and thickened uterine lining. If regular cycles, could uterine polyps or fibroids. An exam and ultrasound with your doctor would be appropriate, particularly if bleeding continues or recurs monthly at this level.
