Period clots??

I will be the only one to not include pictures because truly they make me squeamish and i know others feel the same. But recently I’ve been trying to get pregnant with my boyfriend and nothing is working (i would also love some advice from you ladies on how long it took for you to conceive and what you did that helped) anyways this cycle hit me like a train and my clots have been quarter sized every single time i wipe and i can’t even keep a regular tampon in for more than two hours which is super out of the ordinary for me. Is this just a heavy flow month?
