Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
Passing clots with menstruation is normal, it usually is due to endometrial tissue getting shed in chunks. If however the bleeding is still heavy and with cramps, then go ahead with an evaluation done by your gynecologist to look for the underlying cause. You might need to have hormonal tests and ultrasound scan.
Take care.
