Hi! I thought I was alone in this, I always coughed some, usually just coffee-colored, some frank blood during my periods. It got worse as I aged, I haven't had any embos, but I noticed that I had to lay off weight lifting during my flow. Any strain on my chest wall seems to result in bleeds. Mine were worse every second month (mystery?), I think its very much hormone related. I'd suggest bonus spinach or leafy greens, increasing your vitamin K. Also make sure you're not taking any OTC blood thinners.....(asprin). You should bring this up with your CF team as well, they should know and document etc etc. But you're not alone *hugs*
