Hi there!
I got my first period when I was 10 (I'm 15 now). It's usually fairly consistent, with an odd month every once in a while. Steady bleeding for about 4 or 5 days. This time, however, I've been on it for 16 days. The first week and some of the second have been so much bleeding that I've been changing a super tampon and a maxi pad in the course of an hour or two. That finally stopped 2 days ago. But this morning when I woke up I had massive clots. I've never had so many or so big before. They're probably about the size of nickels. (Sorry to be so descriptive.) I went to the doctor for a regular checkup on the 6th of march, and I asked my doctor about it (this was the heavy flow time) and she said its common at my age to have irregular periods. I have horrible cramping and clots now though. I should also add that there is NO POSSIBILITY of pregnancy or a miscarriage. I have not had sex. Should I be as unconcerned as my doctor (and my stepmother)?
