Menstrual blood doesn't clot like normal blood, if ti did then it'd be detrimental to the whole process of menstruation. What people normally think are clots are actually larger pieces of the uterus lining that is shed, or blood mixing with cervical mucus.

Why is fibrin not normally present in the blood?
Fibrin is not normally present in the bloodstream because it is a part of a blood clot. To have circulating fibrin would be to have circulating blood clots, which is a medical emergency. Within the plasma, however, is the precursor to fibrin - fibrinogen. When this is activated, such as by signalling molecules released by damaged cells lining a blood vessel, fibrinogen is cut into fibrin at that location to create a clot and stop the bleeding.
What protein forms blood clot?
When blood clotting is activated, fibrinogen (a protein of the blood plasma) circulating in the blood is converted to fibrin, which in turn helps to form a stable blood clot at the site of vascular disruption.
What is blood clot resolution?
Clot resolution is also known as Fibrinolysis, it requires plasmin which is activated by the plasma protein plasminogen. The presence of a clot around the vessel activates the endothelial cells to release tissue plasminogen factor. Activated factor XII and Thrombin during clotting also serve as plasminogen activators. This causes most plamin to be confined to the clot, if plamin does move into the plasma it is quickly denatured by circulating enzymes as it would be harmful to other cells. Fibrinolysis begins within two days and continues over several days until the clot is dissolved.
What is deep vein thrombosis?
Thrombosis is the formation of a clot or thrombus inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system.Thromboembolism is a general term describing both thrombosis and its main complication which is embolisation1.1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThrombosisBlood clot.
