I have been having very heavy painful periods but short periods no more then 3 to 4 days. I am 37. Lots of small clots. Wondering if this is a sign of having a fibroid? My sister had fibroids recently and bled for like 3 months straight before she got it removed and that is NOt me so Im trying to figure out from those with them what their symptoms are.Thanks

My periods were lasting 3-4 days and I felt soooo lucky.
Then while I was vacationing in the Dominican Republic this
past december, I thought I was okay because I had my period at the beginning of dec. BUT on December 26 I started my period again and it lasted for 15 days !!! I got it again on Feb 02 for 7 days!
So worried as I was (I'm in your age group by the way) I made an appointment to see my doctor, I didn't know what it could be, I had always been regular. Was I going through premenopause ?
Sooo, my doc gave me an internal examination, did a pap smear,
gave me calcium and Vitamin D and sent me for blood tests and a pelvic ultrasound. I went for my blood tests last week and next Monday the 26th, I go for my pelvic ultrasound. I guess I should find out what is going on by the 2nd week of March. Keeping my fingers crossed !
Go see your doc ! Don't take any chances.
Good Luck.
You can email me during the 2nd week of March and I'll tell you what my results show.

Around the same age as you (now 45) I had heavy bleeding & large clots. The first period lasted around 30 days with intense cramping at the start. The second 45 days without cramps. When it stopped I went to the gyn and she proclaimed fibroid tumor.

Having no money (and really not wanting anyone cutting or scrapping on me) I decided to opt for a healthier lifestyle. Only drank water - and lots of it, stopped eating meat & cheese - occassionally an egg in something store bought (so I became vegetarian on the way to being vegan), exercised (mostly walking 1-3 miles, 5 x a week, as it exercises all the body parts with out being strenuous on any joints). My periods are now normal and I never have cramping unless I don't exercise for awhile.

If I were you, I'd either have a Dr. diagnos so you know what you are dealing with, and then look up other ways to treat it (most Dr's won't think there are other ways to treat it so don't go by just what the Dr says)

OR

Just start seriously changing your lifestyle. The best lifestyle change there is goes by the acronym NEWSTART.

N-nutrition. Head toward vegan and do cleanses if you've been a meat eater.
E-exercise
W-water. drink lots

S-Sunshine. 15 minutes a day is plenty w/o sunscreens
T-Temperance. Avoid bad things, moderation in good things.
A-fresh Air. Open windows when you sleep @ night, and whenever else you can. Exercise in the fresh air. Be outside as much as possible.
R-rest. Make sure you are getting good sleep
T-trust in God. Work on your spiritual life, too. Body, Mind & Soul are all inter-related.
