I have been without a period for over 12 months and have now come on with thick dark red clotty blood. Is this normal??? I thought that I had finished my periods.

This is quite common and can often be triggered by things such as stress, change of diet/lifestyle, illness or medication. However, it is a good idea to get this checked out by your doctor as well as considering what might have caused it from the factors mentioned above.
