Period Clot or Miscarriage?

2 replies

Anonymus123 · 01/03/2020 00:12

I am on the contraceptive implant so my periods are quiet irregular. I was 2 weeks late to when I thought I should’ve came on however as they are irregular, I thought nothing of this. I came on my period on Thursday, I had cramps which just felt like period cramps. Yesterday in my sanitary towel I found what looked like tissue, a dark purple / liver colour, slightly oval shape but not a perfect shape as such. This was probably around the size of the average woman’s tip of the thumb and also looked like it had some additional tissue wrapped round the middle of it which made the width of the middle thicker then the tip / end of whatever this may have been.

When I googled this i came across this being either a clot from my period, or a miscarriage. As I am new to the web page, it will not allow me to attach the image I have so the above is the best description I can give, hopefully it is enough! Can someone advise if they are aware of which this may be? And also would a doctor be able to confirm this if all I have is the photo? Thank you

Decidual Cast?

@notangelinajolie Hello, what I found wasn’t as bloody and looked more fleshy. It was smaller in size but more compact as google images shows what you have suggested as quite stringy / discharge like. ( forgive me I have never heard of what you suggested before so thank you). My period has also pretty much gone. Yesterday was the only day I experienced proper bleeding
