Hi XXXXXXX,
Thanks for consulting us.
If your periods were on time & there was no chance of a pregnancy then it is likely to be a piece of endometrium ( inner most lining of your womb ) which is shed every month with your periods.
Otherwise it may represent a product of conception if you have any chance of being pregnant.
Hope this information alleviate your confusion. Please write back if you want to discuss this further.
Take care.
