\"Menstrual<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

During menstruation<\/a>, the endometrial cells that line the uterus leave the body, and as it happens, the body releases proteins that cause the blood in the uterus to coagulate. The blood that the body has already shed also contains these coagulation proteins. When your flow is most heavy, the coagulation proteins within the blood may start to clump together, resulting in menstrual blood clots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, this takes place when menstrual blood pools in the uterus or vagina before it leaves the body. There are many possible causes of large menstrual blood clots. If you\u2019re noticing larger than normal clots even during the light to medium flow days, you need to consider visiting a gynaecologist<\/a> to rule out any possible concerns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
