Basically, my last two periods were pretty much on time (give or take a few days - normal for me) but they were soooo light. Hardly worth putting a pad on for!. And 12 days after my last period, ive now been bleeding lighty for 7 days. That is very unusal for me. One, to be that light and two, to last that long.I took a pregnacy test after my 2nd light period and it was negative. Have a doc appointment soon - was just looking for some advice to tie me over till then.

Cheers

Hi mkb1983.

Firstly, welcome to the Forum.

Our bodies can change just like that ( click of the fingers )..

If you have a lot of stress going on in your life, this can cause what you are describing..

I am not sure if you are on birth control, via tablets, or other methods and whether you've changed methods but again, your Doctor may suggest that as you have matured more, your body now needs a different tablet, stronger.

Basically, I don't think you do have anything to worry about at all your body is simply changing and maturing and I am sure the Doctor will recommend something alternative to try.

But, hey, at least they are light I've always been fortuanate there, except for the pain, which is a "pain" in the .....
