What Causes Vaginal Discharge Of Blood Tissue During Menstruation?

Hi, I started my period on 31/12/15, this morning as I changed my tampon something fell out of me, about the size of a golf ball but oval not round. I had a quick look and it was very concertinaed and full of blood. Pretty gross. I ve had fibroid surgery in the past, could this be one that just detached and fell out? Should I be worried, there s no particular pain? Thanks W

Hi
I had gone through your question and understand your concern.
See , endometrial tissue is shed during menstruation along with blood. So , i think the tissue which came out was endometrial tissue.
And there no need to worry about it.
As far your past fibroid surgery is concerned , i would like to know that when did you have this surgery and what was the type of fibroid (if you can tell).
Let me know if you want to know anything else.
I hope this information was of help.
Thankyou.
