Dark Blood

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭

This question may be a bit of a TMI but im wondering if anyone has gone without a period for a few cycles then gotten a 'period' that has been really dark?
I havent bled in over 150 days, been slightly spotting for two days and now ive got killer cramps, bloating and what looks like almost black clots coming out.

I havent had a period in over 365 days and i started spotting i guess a few days ago. The blood has been on and off. Like ill bleed either super light or reallt heavy in the morning when i wake up then nothing througout thw day. So i understand your question. If its normal im not sure. Ive always had some type of clots in my period which came out as really dark blood globs and ive always thought it was normal. If youre worried i would talk woth your OB and see what he/she says

I didn't get a period for a whole year and then when it finally came I was passing big dark clots for a whole week. My GYNO said that when you don't get your period every month the lining of your uterus just keeps building, and when you finally get your period you are getting rid of the lining of your uterus. So, the longer in between your periods the more build up you have to get rid of.
