A member asked:
I have abnormal menstrual cycles i believe. the consistency is always gritty, it looks like red sand. always with lots of big chunks of clotted blood. is this something i need to look into?

You may be losing a larger-than-normal amount of blood than usual. It would be prudent to consult a gynecologist. In the meantime take oral iron and multivitamin supplements to prevent anemia from blood loss. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
