Should i go to the doctors? (tmi)

[Dream.A.Dream]

Well, i've noticed that for my past few cycles my periods seem to be getting more and more unbearably painful. Like i'm pretty much bed ridden it's that bad. And this time i'm so heavy it's ridiculous, i'm going through a super plus tampon and a pad in like 3 hours. And there's like huge clots in it sorry for the tmi. Do you think i should go to the doctors and get checked out or is this normal?

Definately go to the doctors - even if all they can do is put your mind at rest. It could be something simple, like a polyp, or fibroid. These can cause your period to be extremely painful, extremely heavy or have clots. Also, they are both easily treatable!! Don't suffer in silence hun - the docs are there for a reason!! Let us know how you get on x x x
