Strangest Period Experience Ever

I'll start by saying I've been stacking my birth control for about 5 months, but I stopped on Saturday, and my period started today.

The strangest thing happened when I was showering today. A huge blob of blood fell out, so big I could feel it coming out. Like almost 2 Tbsp worth. That was weird but I kind of ignored it and kept showering.

When my shower was over, I noticed it had collected in the little cup-like drain cover. Most of the blood had washed away, but it looked like there was something solid. So I picked it up. It felt like the slimy skin you'd take off a raw chicken or something. It was about 2.5 inches long by 1 inch wide, narrower at one end. Some parts were dark red, some were bright red, some were more peachy like skin. It was hollow on one side, like I could stick my finger in there.

What was it? I assume it was some kind of skin or membrane from inside my vagina, but I have no idea why. I've never had this happen before, because I definitely would have noticed when tossing my pads or tampons. I realize it's probably nothing dangerous, but I'm curious nonetheless.

Thanks for any answers you may have!

It's kind of fascinating. I always thought the cervix was a very small opening, so it's interesting that such a big thing could come out with no discomfort at all.
