See a doctor: The symptoms you describe could be due to hormonal changes causing excess bleeding... But passing clots is not normal. You may have a polyp or fibroid that is the cause of this excess. Only a doctor can evaluate that. It sounds like you may be anemic, so checking your blood count important also. Don't hesitate, make an appointment today!
