What's wrong with my period?

Okay, so I'm not sure if this is normal or not..Let me fill you in..

  • I'm 14
  • I started when I was around 13
  • I got really bad stomach pains (kind of like I was being repeatedly punched in the stomach) around the time of when I started, and the stomach pains weren't always when I was on my period
  • I've been to the doctors for stomach pains and they thought it was just too much stomach acid
  • When I'm on my period I wake up in the morning and I have to rush to the bathroom as soon as I stand up because (I don't know why or if this is normal) the blood just starts rushing out (and for some reason it doesn't come out all night)
  • It has lumps of blood coming out every time and I know that it's normal to have small lumps here and there but these are really..big..

Like I said, I'm not sure if this is normal or not, but do the stomach problems tie in? It's really confusing me.. ~ Kittenmaster101
