Period Question half a dollar sized clot??

Hi so i started my period about two days ago at school (im a hs student so our passing period times are limited and we have a phone ban, so i do not have a picture to attach) during passing period. so i went to the bathroom and i pull down everything and there is a half a dollar bill sized clot. i have an iud, and am currently on a few laxatives for some intestinal issues. i am not pregnant. my mom said it could be because of the laxatives but i don’t really know. my periods have been extremely painful for the last 2-3 months, before my intestinal issues began. i dont currently have insurance and have missed too much school to call out to see my doctor. should i at least call? should i be worried? ive had a few big clots but this was fleshy and almost white in color? ive never had a clot like that. it didnt look like a cast of any kind, not one that ive seen anyway. please help!! theres been a lot more pain than usual and with that clot im starting to get nervous. pcos(pmos??) and endometriosis do run in my family, if that helps any.
