Fibroid Bleeding and Clot Log

A simple log for heavy bleeding, clots, flooding, product changes, pain, and fatigue when fibroids may be part of the concern.

Seeing clots in the toilet can be upsetting. It can also be hard to describe later.

Do not try to tell what something is by sight. You cannot confirm a clot, tissue, or fibroid from appearance alone. Track the pattern and call a clinician if you are worried.

If bleeding feels severe or unsafe, seek urgent or emergency care. Do not wait to finish this log.

Fast safety check

Seek urgent or emergency care if any of these fit.

I feel faint, weak, or short of breath. I have chest pain or severe dizziness. I have severe pelvic or belly pain. I may be pregnant. I have bleeding after menopause. Bleeding is soaking through protection fast. I feel unsafe waiting.

Daily bleeding log

Use one row per day. Plain notes work well.

Date Period day Flow Products used Leaks or flooding Clots Pain 0 to 10 Other symptoms : : light, medium, heavy, very heavy type and count none, clothes, sheets, toilet, sudden gush none, small, quarter size, larger dizzy, tired, weak, nausea

If you use a cup or disc, add the amount if you know it. If you do not know, write how often you emptied it.

Clot notes

Do not use this table to identify what you saw. Use it to show your clinician the pattern.

Date and time Approx size How many During what flow Notes : pea, dime, quarter, larger light, medium, heavy, very heavy

Words like "quarter size" or "larger than a quarter" are enough. You do not need photos unless you choose to take them.

Product change notes

This helps show how fast bleeding is happening.

Time Product How full Changed because pad, tampon, cup, disc, liner partly full, full, overflow time, leak, pain, leaving home, sleep

Add night changes too. Waking up to change protection is useful to report.

Symptoms that can go with heavy bleeding

Mark what happens during or after heavy days.

Fatigue. Dizziness. Weakness. Shortness of breath. Headache. Fast heartbeat. Pelvic pressure. Cramps or belly pain. Back pain. Missed work, school, sleep, or plans.

Ask your clinician whether anemia testing fits your symptoms.

What changed this cycle

Question Your notes Was this heavier than usual? Did clots happen more often than usual? Did bleeding last longer than usual? Did you bleed between periods? Did pain or pressure change? Did this affect work, school, sleep, or plans?

Questions to bring

Does this count as heavy menstrual bleeding? Could fibroids fit this pattern? What else could cause these clots or bleeding? Do I need a pregnancy test today? Do I need a blood count or iron test? Do I need an ultrasound? What symptoms mean I should seek urgent care? What should I track next cycle?

Privacy note

Bleeding logs can include period dates, pregnancy concerns, sex, pain, and location clues. Store them in a place that fits your privacy needs.

Floriva can keep notes on your device. A paper log works too. Use the log you can keep up with and bring to care.
