It could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor if you are too concerned.
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.
Yes, providing they are not severe or come with blood.
If you mean blood clots in menstrual flow, it's likely not clots that you're seeing as menstrual blood doesn't clot like blood from your veins - if it did that'd be detrimental to the whole process.What you're seeing may be larger pieces of the uterine lining, which are the main waste product of menstruation, you will see these during heavier flow and heavier flow will be more likely if you have hormonal imbalance - which would be the case if your cycles were irregular. It's nothing to worry about, seeing tissue like this in your menstrual flow is very normal.
Have you ever had a scab? Its like that, only instead of the red blood cells clotting on the outside, they mess up and do it inside.

Menstrual blood has fewer platelets than normal blood because if it was to clot it would be detrimental to the process. If menstrual blood were to clot like normal blood it would inhibit the blood leaving the uterus.
heavy blood loss like this is possibly caused by a miscarrige. He is checking to see if this is a possible cause (as you need to be pregnant first).

Calcium is needed for the formation of fibrin in the blood clotting process. Fibrin helps form a mesh-like structure to catch platelets and blood cells, which then stops bleeding by forming a stable blood clot. Without calcium, the blood clotting process would be impaired, leading to difficulty in wound healing and increased risk of bleeding disorders.
Sperm does not directly influence the menstrual cycle. The menstrual cycle is regulated by hormones like estrogen and progesterone that are produced by the ovaries. Sperm's role is to fertilize an egg if present, which can lead to pregnancy but does not impact the regularity of the menstrual cycle.
During blood clotting, coagulation is the process where blood changes from a liquid to a gel-like state to stop bleeding. It involves a series of chemical reactions that lead to the formation of a fibrin clot, which helps seal the wound. This process is triggered by platelets and various clotting factors in the blood.
A blood clot that stimulates more blood clotting is an example of positive feedback. In this process, the initial clotting triggers additional clotting mechanisms, amplifying the response until the wound is sufficiently healed. This is different from homeostasis, which refers to the body’s ability to maintain stable internal conditions. Positive feedback loops, like blood clotting, are used to achieve a specific outcome rather than maintain equilibrium.
