I’ve noticed all the women around me that are not on birth control are having very strange periods. Heavy clots with light bleeding, nausea, body aches and diarrhea.. are you not on birth control and having strange periods?

Question

Answer

I have had diarrhoea and periods go hand in hand since I started getting them. More recently, I've been vomiting just before and throughout my periods. No large clots or anything though.

Answer

I have never been on birth control and my periods are normal. 4 days long,  light bleeding ,no giant clots ,and minimum cramping

Answer

Mine are irregular and my cycles are long, but I really don’t want to go on birth control. I don’t like the idea of putting it into my body.

Answer

No bc for a good 6 years now. I have regular periods, accurate to the day almost every time, moderate flow, predictable - I know what to expect on each day of my period, never really get clots and I get mild cramps and backache for the first day or 2. Because of the regularity I also have a much better idea of when I'm most and least fertile to help avoid accidents!

Answer

I’m not on birth control and my periods are always fine. Always on time, 4-5 days, minimal to no cramping but I do suffer from bad pms.

Answer

I’m on the pill and my period always starts the morning of placebo day 3!
Lasts 6 days, light on day 1 and day 6, and medium flow the rest.
I usually have some small clots, but no painful cramps and no crazy heavy flow!

Answer

I’ve always had irregular periods. When I’d get them, always had clots, heavy for a couple days then basically spotting the rest of the week. I throw up, have debilitating cramps to the point they make me light headed & nauseous, diarrhea... needless to say I HATE my period 😂. 
I’m on the mini pill now since breastfeeding & don’t get them, so I’ll likely continue after I am done because even tho I’d only get 2-3 periods a year it was awful when it did come.
