After I had my last child which was over 2 years ago I started having heavy bleeding til the point where I soak an overnight pad in less then an hour. And on the other hand nothing but big cloths comes out whether I'm sitting or standing the whole time my period is on. I never had heavy period til after this last child.should I be worried and need to go get checked..

I am 45 and I have had my tubes tied 18 years ago thats when my golf ball size clots started. My doctor told me I need a D and C. If that doesn't work a hysterectomy, I really don't want to get rid of all my plumbing, been putting it off, but no more periods does sound good right now after being in the bathroom every half hour. And I wear a super plus tampon and an over night pad.

I am 27 years old and just got my first period three days ago.  I am so new to this that its embarrassing to ask the basic questions.  Is it normal to have tiny blood clots after I am done urinating? What color should my blood be?  How long does an average menstrual cycle last?  Thanks so much for any advice.
