    12 year old with long period

    My daughter started getting her peiod when she was 11 and a half, the first couple were around a week, and after that they have lasted anywhere from 2 weeks to a month, she is on her third week this time. Of course she is embarrassed and doesn't want anybody to know, or me to talk to a DR. I can't remember mine ever being that way when they started, but did have problems all my life until a hysterctomy a few years ago. Is this normal? Should I talk to a pediatrician? thanks Jo
