It could signify a hormone imbalance, if you are in pre or perimenopause. It's quite normal as your hormones shift to have irregular periods and periods that last a long time with heavy bleeding/clotting. If you go through more than one pad in an hour's time, or if you have clots the size of a Baseball or larger, you should contact your OB/GYN.
