Short period
Dame
I have a question and I hope it can be answered for me.
When I'm on my period, it's only for a short time. Normally I always had my period for at least 4 or 5 days, but for the last 3 months it's only been 1.5 to 2 or 3 days each month. After that, I don't have any spotting at all. And I'm not pregnant.
So my question is whether this is normal? And does it have anything to do with reduced fertility?

Hey there!
I also only have a period of 2 to 3 days. Usually, it starts with brown discharge 2 days beforehand, but only when wiping (I don't count that as day 1 of a new cycle; I only count the day it really starts flowing and I need a tampon as day 1). Then I have one day of moderate to good flow, day 2 is lighter but still enough for a tampon, and by day 3 it's just brown discharge when wiping again, so I can get through the day with a panty liner. So, I don't think it's strange at all... -

Linda33, thanks for your reply. Do you think it's okay to have such a short MS, or did you ever go to the GP to ask about that? -

I don't think it's a big deal... I've always only had my period for 3 days... even when I was still on the pill... As long as there's a good bleed in between, I think that's fine...
