How big is the tissue that comes out when you have a period supposed to be?I mea!


Question: Well, it will change quite a bit as you get more and more periods. There's no 'set' size for it, but it shouldn't be too big. maybe about the size of a Q-tip would be regular, a bit bigger and a bit smaller wouldn't be bad. If it gets like.. huge or something, you might want to go to a doctor. It's nothing to stress over though. If you don't notice any, it's ok. A lot of the time you don't. Since it's a solid, it usually comes out when you go to the bathroom, not on your pad.

You are nOT suppose to have tissue come out. did you recently have a miscarriage, or a DC. then have tissue less then the size of a nickel is alright. If it is bigger then a nickel you need to call the doctor right away.

that depends on the person.

I need more info....tissue...do you mean tampon? Or are you referring to body tissue...if body tissue go to dr. asap.

Ummm...I'm 45 years old and I've been having my period since I was 11 (34 years) and I've NEVER passed any tissue! I don't think passing tissue is normal -- unless you are having a miscarriage or something. If you mean how much blood do you lose during a normal month, I've heard it's not much more than a couple tablespoons (although it can certainly feel like more).

IF, however, you are passing more than blood and the occassional clot, you need to consult your OB/GYN and see what the problem is -- it could be something serious.

By tissue do you mean the lining of the uterus which sheds? Because it isn't really visible as 'tissue', it's mostly like blood and may be a little bit of thicker bits in it. This is a pretty unclear question, maybe some more info on what you mean would help us to answer.

You would only pass tissue if you have recently had a miscarriage. Clots can be all different sizes. Sometimes you have clots first thing in the morning when blood sits in the uterine cavity, then you stand up & go to the washroom it passes. Might be the size of a grape or so. Are you having pain? You can provide more details, maybe you'll get better a better answer.
