according to my doc...the heavy clotting (i didn't have a period for over 6 mo's) is because the (uterine?) lining is shedding. it doesn't shed when you dont' have a period. that's actually how i wound up being diagnosed with pcos, was because of the periods (allof a sudden no periods and gained 30 lbs in less than 2 mo's) but anyway, maybe u should get another doc's opinion....like an endocrinologist?
