Huge clotting ?
Posted: 09-22-08 23:21pm

I'm 29. I've never had a regular period in my life. Over the past few months i've been spotting, having brownish discharge, so I made an appt. with my gyno. My pap came back fine. She put me on bc to regulate my period.
The day I started the pill, I started my period. Very heavy flow. Like Niagra falls flow. That was Sept. 8th. Its now Sept 23 and it shows no signs of stopping. I called the gyno last thurs. and she said i had to just let it go. But the thing is, its getting heavier as each day passes. And i'm having huge blood clots. A few were a little larger than a golf ball. The first clot was saturday. The second big one was today and they just keep on coming now. I've been having the worst cramps i've ever had in my life and i'm extremely tired all the time.
Is there a way to make it stop? What happens if I just stop taking the pill? I mean I can handle a little blood, but this is getting ridiculous. I have to make sure I'm near a bathroom at all times or i'm in trouble. I have to change my pad or tampon about every hour or so.
