Have Cramps, Clotting, Constipation, Bleeding. Is It Related To Stress?
Hello,
I am confused I normally have regular timed periods that come with a fair amount of cramping and several clots. They normally last 7 days and I use 2-3 tampons and a pad durning the day and then a pad at night. This month I was a week late and had constipation 1 day and diarrhea for 4/5 days following that. I bleed a lot less then I normally do. I used 1 tampon the whole day and it wouldn't even be full at the end of the day no bleeding at all at night. No cramps or clots at all. Lasted 5 days with 3 of the days just dark brown color like old blood. The other 2 days were pink/light red color. I've been having periods for 8 years and never experienced this, also diet and exercise have not changed. Have not been stressed either.

Hi, You usually have regular periods, this month a weak late, had diarrhea with the period.
The cause could be anemia, or infection, dark bleeding and cramps it self indicates infection.
I usually prescribe to my patients with such symptoms fluconazole, ofloxacin, and hematitnics.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and proteine foods. Thank you.
