How long does your period last?

[linz]

Mine is usually 4 days, 2 heavy/medium and 2 days super light. Well today is day 3 and I've had nothing all day - tmi but pretty much wasting tampons. Can they be different month to month? It just seems weird to have one only for 2 days. I know I've been stressed lately and that pry isn't helping any to sit and think about it.

Two cycles ago it was only 2 days, last month it was 4.

Are you sure that you had your period?

Edit: Only asking because a few girls on here have said that they have gotten a short (~2 days) "period" and turned out to be pregnant.

Mine is usually 3-4 days. The first day or two being med/heavy and the last 2 being pretty light.

Mine is about 6 days, but usually only 1-2 are medium or heavy. But it varies somewhat month to month.

That would be pretty freakin good if that was true. But I tested a ton last week and they were all BFN. It was somewhat heavy on saturday like a normal period. I'm not feeling any symptoms except have had a little lower stomach ache but it just felt like cramps.

Usually I'm 4-5 days, this month is 9 days boo!

[vmars]

4ish days they've been much lighter since I went off the pill.

[Jalapeñomel]

Mine is usually 3 or 4 not including leading or ending spotting. And it's totally normal for your period to be different month to month.

I don't have periods now because I take continual active BCPs, but it has always been around two weeks, and at least a full week is heavy duty. It's pretty miserable. I'm kind of terrified for the day that I stop taking my BCP.

7-8 days...occasionally 6 or 9. :-(

I'm always jealous when I look at someone else's chart and see a 4-day period!

[aliciar6]

Lately it's only been about 3 days and really light with maybe a day or 2 of extremely light spotting at the start.

I know, right? My best friend growing up had 3 day periods, every single month. I hated her during every single one of my 2 (sometimes 2+) week ones.

7-8 days, but I have endo.

[linz]

SonOfaBitch. I had nothing Monday and Tuesday. This morning I went to the bathroom and had spotting. Hopefully it's just one last spot and won't be starting up again.

[Cricket0619]

3 to 4 days. Last month it was 2.

[picksthemusic]

Between 4-5 days, depending. Usually heavy day 1 and then tapers off for a few days.

My last one was 5 days. 3 being heavy, 2 light. I almost miss being on birth control, it was only 2 light days.
