I need help identifying something.

I was put on Loestrin 24 by my gyno for PCOS. I never cramp when I'm on my period (when I'm not on the pill). Today was the first day I started my period on the pill and I was cramping like I've never cramped before. I couldn't move and the pain as unbearable. It felt like diarrhea and cramps at the same time only when I would try to use to bathroom nothing would come out. After pushing so much, something came out of my vagina. It looked like a clot at first, but it was huge. I fished it out of the toilet with an instrument and put it into the bathtub. I washed the blood off of it to see what it was but everything I've researched comes up empty. Could you please help me identify it? I put my finger next to it to show its size. The picture was taken while it was still under water.

It's possible it could be lining from your uterus. It could also be an early embryo if an egg was fertilized and didn't attach to your uterus, although I don't know how plausible that is.

I would definitely at least call your doc though-- sometimes women have life-threatening reactions to birth control and this could signal a blood clotting issue.

Good luck, and I hope you feel better.
