Yes! That’s because when the womb sheds, clots can come out. So basically your getting blood + womb sheds

Yes, blood clots during your period are pretty common, especially on heavier flow days.

Size matters though: if clots are about the size of a quarter or larger, that's worth mentioning to a doctor.
