K well just to start I'm 28 with 2 kids. In the past year I have been having serious problem with my period. I come on about every 32 days. My period last anywhere between 7-15 days. I go through 4 packs of pads(box of 18 which = 72 overnight pads) plus for the first 4 days I have to use diapers because I am on soooooo heavy. The other problem is that I have a lot of clotting and some are the size of tennis balls and they are a weird colour(purple pink colour looks kind of like very rare steak) and when ever I sit of the toilet it feels like my uterus is going to fall out. I actually scream in pain because there is so much pressure. HELP PLEASE

How old are your kids, because that can really mess up your hormones and stuff. But this sounds more serious. You could even have cancer or something. So GO SEE YOUR DOCTOR! It's not like he's going to wave it away and say it's nothing! ASAP!

The Medical term for what you are experiencing is called
Menorrhagia & Menorrhalgia
You need to have a pelvic ultra sound to determine the condition of your uterus and ovaries. And if you have bleeding between periods such as a period every two weeks you should have a thyroid test. This is called dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
This from a skilled OB/GYN, N.P.
Good Luck
