Can I have a heavy period with clots and still be pregnant?

Can I have a heavy period with clots and still be pregnant?

If you experience heavy bleeding with clots and crampy pain, it is likely that you are having a miscarriage. The bleeding, clots and pain will usually settle when most of the pregnancy tissue has been passed. Sometimes the bleeding will continue to be heavy and you may need further treatment.

Why am I passing huge clots on my period?

Clots happen when the uterine lining sheds increased amounts of blood. When the blood pools in the uterus or vagina, it begins to coagulate, much like it would on an open skin wound. The consistency of menstrual blood varies both throughout the period and from one period to another.

Is it normal to push out blood clots during your period?

It’s perfectly normal to notice some clumps from time to time during your period. These are blood clots that may contain tissue. As the uterus sheds its lining, this tissue leaves the body as a natural part of the menstrual cycle. So clots of tissue are usually nothing to be concerned about.

Can I get a full period and still be pregnant?

You can’t have your menstrual period while you’re pregnant. Some women do have vaginal bleeding during pregnancy. Some even report intermittent bleeding that seems like a regular period to them. But vaginal bleeding during pregnancy is not the same thing as menstruation.

Has anyone had a heavy period and still been pregnant?

For one thing, women can continue to have monthly bleeding throughout their pregnancies. Yes! It’s rare, but it happens. It happened, in fact, to a neighbor of my mom’s.

Should I still take a pregnancy test if I got my period?

You can take a pregnancy test while bleeding or seemingly on your period, because any blood that mixes with your urine will not affect the results of the test. (However, keep in mind that typically a period is a reliable sign that you are not pregnant.)
