It could be a miscarriage..get a check done... if it is incomplete one, then this kind of bleeding is usual, you need to do a scan and see that uterus is empty or not. Contact your gynec doc immediately, dont delay..

Hello.

Thanks for writing to us.

Having a heavy period with clots does not mean miscarriage. this usually happens due to hormonal disturbances. The other causes that need to be ruled out are uterine fibriod, polyps, etc. Presently you need to have hemostatic drugs like ethamsylate and progesterone along with iron supplements to decrease the bleeding and makeup for the blood loss.

I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.

Regards,

Dr. Praveen Tayal
