Gushing Period (weird, help!)?


Question:
I am having a quite strange period problem. I am 15, have never been regular, and untill this week, i have been skipping periods since february. But a few days ago, my period just started in one big gush. Normally i have signs before i get one, but it just started suddenly. After a big gush of blood it was over for that day. With the gush, there is a big blood clot(i don't know what its really called but its something dark red and not quite as liquidy, kind of like a blood boger (sorry haha) ) The next day, it happened again, nothing untill a gush of blood and a blood clot. (Oh yes and they are quite big too, like between the size of a thumbnail to an eyeball) It has been happening for 5 days now, today and yesterday with quite frequent blood gushes, almost as if i were having a normal period, except it gushes then stops, gushes then stops. Sometimes a big gush sometimes just a little. What is up with this? It makes no sense. And i dont want to go to the doctor. What do you think it is

Answers:
Don't worry, this is fairly normal. Your period isn't a continual flow - it comes in stops and starts. Sometimes the spurts are big gushes, sometimes they are small regular seepings.
As you get older, how you hold your body can also influence it - if you sit in one place for a long time and then move, that might loosen up a "gush."
The clots and lumps are pretty normal, too. It's just the excess lining of your uterus breaking up into clumps instead of smooth bits.
No need to go to the doctor. Just stay hydrated and exercise a little - cycling or walking help regulate your cycle.
it sounds pretty normal to me...
