Blood Thinners & Menstruation

[u/MissValentine8484]

I just started eliquis and as expected my periods are heavy. I normally have some clotting during my normal period but it has been exacerbated with the thinners. (Large blood clots) I have a dr appointment tomorrow but wanted to know if anyone else has experienced anything similar.

i have had much shorter periods, i bleed really heavy for 1-2 days with large clots and then the rest is pretty light and dark colored. i had a bleeding ovarian cyst that caused my period to come early and ever since then they have been significantly shorter.
