Why am I passing gel-like clots during period?

Patient's Query

I am 30 years old and married. It's my third day if period... It's not heavy but I am passing gel like stringy clots, that cause weakness in the body, dizziness, I have lower abdominal pain as well as lower back pain, accompanied with dry cough at times and lastly my breasts feel heavy and tender. My period is usually heavy for the first 3days, this time it's clotting with pain and the blood flow is light.

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

You might have symptoms of a disorder called endometriosis. What endometriosis means is the fact that a similar to your uterus lining tissue, has started to grow outside of this organ. Also, a person with endometriosis may feel pain during their periods, have a really heavy flow, or even notice that they pass clots often. Try using a warm water bottle on your stomach area, taking some painkillers, and consulting a gynecologist about treatment options.

I am 25 year old female . I have indulge in unprotected sex last week. 25th was my periods date but this month i didn't get my periods and in today morning i observed that i have pure white and tight discharge from my vagina. So i want to know what can i do now.

It sounds like you may have a yeast infection. If you have an infection, you may not get your period as a result of a hormonal imbalance. Yeast infections are often accompanied by white discharge. For relief, try using over-the-counter antifungal creams or pills. To avoid further infections, always practice safe sex from now on.

I am female 17 107 kg weight.i had unprotected sex and he did not ejaculate what are the chances that I get pregnant

Female | 17

There is a risk of pregnancy when having unprotected sex, even without ejaculation. Sperm can be released beforehand, which can lead to conception. If you miss your menstrual cycle or experience symptoms like nausea, it could indicate pregnancy. In such cases, considering emergency contraceptive options would be a wise step.

Having periods after 11 days of intercourse... Any chance of pregnancy?

Female | 17

A woman could be pregnant if she gets a menstrual cycle after having sex for 11 days, but other times, this is not the reason behind it. You can see cramps in this regard or some bleeding that is not typical of a period. This may be due to the changes in your hormones, or there may be other issues that have lead to this. To diagnose the situation, it's advisable to take the pregnancy test a few weeks after the last time you had sex. Although it's not necessary to have periods after 11 days each month of the sexual act, it does occur sometimes, but it's not always indicative of pregnancy.

Question for OBGYN or anyone in women’s health: I am 25F and have been using the Evra estrogen+progesterone patch (Canadian version) since February 2023 (almost 3 years) due to abnormally heavy periods leading to anemia. It has essentially stopped my period. For the last year only, since April, my “periods” (or breakthrough bleeding) have become more regular, occurring every 3 months or so. I usually will remove the patch when it starts to allow myself to shed any excess lining. But more recently I have been shedding extremely thick clots of coagulated blood/lining, multiple times an hour, each clot about the size of the palm of my hand. This coupled with EXTREMELY heavy bleeding. I use the largest and thickest available overnight pads throughout the day and night, and each one is soaked through in about an hour, along with 2-3 large jelly-like clots sitting on top of the pad which I have to pick up manually and dispose of in the toilet. I can feel the clots passing most often when moving from sitting to standing, as it is accompanied by a wave of abdominal pain and then the uncomfortable sensation of passing a large mass of tissue. I went to the ER the first time this started happening as I was worried about the blood loss. They instructed me to take iron supplements (which I already do) and told me it was normal on the patch - but it isn’t typical for me. It’s been impossible to find a doctor available nearby so I was hoping to get some more insight into why this is suddenly starting to happen, and whether it’s safe for me to continue on the Evra patch. Thank you so much for any help.
