Hi,
Lighter or heavier blood flow with unusually large clots may be due to hormonal changes, intra-uterine devices and fibroids, hormonal imbalances or bleeding disorders etc.
- You have to assess the flow of blood by counting the no. of pads your are changing per day
- If it's more or less than normal, you need consult a gynecologist for further assistance
- Also do TFT, CBC & USG pelvis to rule out any underlying pathology
- Take plenty of fluids
- Take iron supplements
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Get well soon.
