frequent short periods
Posted: 03-02-08 10:13am

My period was due around the 20th of feb. I started to bleed about 2 weeks early. I only bled for 2 days then it was done. I usually bleed for 5 or 6 days. Then 2 weeks later when I was supposed to start I started again. I was bleeding heavy but it only lasted a day. I am just wondering if there could be something wrong with me. My periods are usually pretty normal. I am a little freaked out and curious. I have no idea what could cause this..maybe just stress or eating different. Any info would be very much appreciated.

Are you on birth control? If so then you could be experiencing break through bleeding. How old are you? If you are in your teens, your periods can easily get off track, even if they have seemed normal in the past. Also, stress and diet can deffinately mess you up. I really don't think it sounds like pregnancy. Are you sexually active?

I have had my period for almost 12 yrs and there have only been 3 times in my life when I have been irregular. When I was pregnant, for a while after I had my daughter, and when I was on bc. I have been off the birth control for a year now. I dont think I am pregnant but I havent tested yet. These 2 little periods happened to me while I was back home helping my sister for a month. I thought maybe the change in situations, eating, and sleeping habits may be the reason. I am not sure though and just wondered if there what the possible causes could be.
