Passing anything larger than the size of a quarter is not normal unless a woman has just had a baby (then the largest should be the size of a lemon). That, plus the fact that she is going through pads so fast, means she needs to be seen by a doctor as soon as possible. It could be any of a number of things... some common and easily fixed, some dangerous. Only a doctor can determine the problem.

Yes, this could be symptoms of menopause but because of how heavy the flow is and how often she's changing her pads she needs to see her gynecologist for further evaluation of the situation to see what they think is going on.
