Blood Clots During Period: Top 7 Causes of Menstrual Clotting

4. Endometriosis (adenomyosis).

This disease is commonly diagnosed in women after 40-50. It is triggered usually by womb traumas due to uterine manipulations. As a result, endometrial lesions increase in number and evoke muscle hyperplasia and uterine growth. Adenomyosis is characterized by profuse, painful menses with coagulums and menstrual disorders along with the mid-cycle abdominal pains.

5. Myoma.

Myoma belongs to the group of the benign hormone-dependent tumors. Its knots increase the womb in size and enlarge the endometrium area. Myoma`s main symptoms include menstrual disorders, profuse periods with thickened masses and lower abdominal pains during urination.

6. Diseases, affecting endometrium.

These include endometrial hyperplasia and polyposis. Hyperplasia is associated with the excessive endometrial growth. Polyposis is the formation of polyps in the endometrium. Both conditions need special treatment. As these diseases are characterized by the growth of endometrium, they can trigger profuse periods with clots which are nothing more than pieces of proliferated uterine cells.

7. Abnormalities in the uterine development.

They are associated with hereditary chromosomal abnormalities, for instance, with the uterine septum. Such disorders can also develop in fetus if a pregnant woman is smoking, abusing alcohol or using medications, forbidden during pregnancy. Uterine abnormalities inhibit the menstrual discharge and it begins to coagulate in the womb.
