Menstruation :: Alternating Light And Heavy Flow During Periods
Apr 26, 2015
I usually have a regular period flow but suddenly it has changed. I received my "period" about the due time it was expected to come however it started off as spotting -light bleeding for about 8hours. For the next 18 hours (including overnight) it was as if my normal period had come (medium-heavy flow). Then for the next 18 hours again it returned to very light period. Then for the next 4-5 hours it was normal flow again. However after that for the next 20 hours or so it was just quite light again. However now (4-6 hours) i am pretty sure my period has stopped/ i am experiencing extremely light spotting. I'm currently 17 and I think it may be due to stress but i'm not completely sure..
Also, basically my period has all been cut short to 2-3 days when it usually last 5 days minimum.

I have had extremely light periods for the past 2 months. They have always been very predictable. Every 28 days lasting 5 to 6 days. Last month, it was 2 days early, light flow for 1 half day, spotting before and after for a day. I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative. This month.. All day yesterday (26 days), I had blood (red/pink) when wiping but not all the time and had small blood stains on my panties at the end of the day. This morning, there's no blood. Same as last month. My weight is not a problem and I haven't changed my diet. I am not under any more stress than usual. Why the unusual period?

I had unprotected sex 10 DAYS ago. I took ipill within an hour after sex. However, 2 days after, I started having black blood stains. And from the 4th day till today (7th day), I started to bleed with the flow is similar to the 3rd day of my usual period time. I had my period about 17 days ago. And it was a heavy flow compared to my usual flow. Could u kindly advice what does this mean and should i do anything ? And i believe it can't be possible for pregnancy.

I had unprotected sex the 23rd and got my period the 24th, 25th, and the 26th. I had a regular flow until the 26th, where my flow just stopped midday like a faucet. This has never happened to me before, my period has always decreased in flow until I've had just brown discharge. I've never gone from a regular flow to no flow just like that. I ovulated earlier in the month, the 9th. Could I have gotten pregnant?

Please tell me is my period flow normal. I used to get 5-6 day periods, heavy for 2 days, medium for 2 days, then light for 1-2 days until it tapered off and ended. It was this way even when I was on birth control.
For the past few months now, I have been getting 3-4 day periods, where the first day is really just some spotting indicating my period is going to be starting. The second day is my heavy day. The third day is medium light. The 4th day is light. I'm still on birth control. I am 30 years old now.
Also last month, my period color was dark brown and I also had some black colored clotting during my heavy day. I know some blood clots are normal during menstruation, I had them all my life. But this blood clot was black. Again this month on my heavy day, I had black colored clot. It was a dime size clot. Size was not large. Is black color clotting anything to worry about? I do not see red blood these past two periods like I am used to seeing. I am seeing mostly brown and/or black.
And how can I increase my menstrual flow. I am worried that my endometrium lining is thinning and can cause a problem when I do try for children.

Had a successful removal of a golfball size fibroid on 24th march after having 2 horrendous long and heavy clotting and bleeding episodes. Was so hopeful that myomectomy will resolve the problem, but I dont think I am so lucky. 1st period post op arrived 2 weeks later...lots of cramping and very heavy flow, no clotting though...and lasted for 2 weeks including trailing off period. After 25 days (thats my normal cycle) the 2nd period started...it was one from HELL....lots of cramping and LOTS and LOTS of clots ...some as big as my fist!!! Today is day 11 still bleeding however not heavily but still red fresh blood.
Anyone with similar experience?

So my period ended 4 days ago. The blood flow was really different in that it was Dark Brown/Black in colour for the whole period. After the last day of my menstrual bleed, I have been experiencing hard stool which would push me to force a little harder to push my stool out. In doing so, (meaning pushing a bit harder to poo) I would see a flow of bright red blood running out like urine (which does not contain any clots). This has been happening for the past 4 days after my regular period ended. Is this normal or should I be alarmed? P.S. I recently started using oral contraception (Yasmin) last month

Me and my boyfriend lost our virginity on 11th Feb, and I bleed quite heavily throughout and yes it was painful as well. And it was unprotected sex. It's been 24 hours and I'm still bleeding (not that much, but its more than just spotting) . my vagina feels like as if its ripped badly and it doesn't feel like my old one anymore.
On the other hand, my menstruation cycle is 28th of every month and I skipped on my periods last time I.e. I didn't had my period on 28th January (I rarely miss on it) .
My questions are:
1. Is that bleeding because of hymen rupture or menstruation? (It's somewhat thick and sticky)
2. Should I take contraceptive pill and is it safe?
3. When i missed on my period I was still a virgin so I didn't take it seriously.. Now I'm not.. So what would now my periodic cycle be?

So I just ended my period a week ago and had a little bit of bleeding when I wiped for the past few days then today my bleeding was really heavy and I've had cramps and horrible headaches for the past few days. I've also felt a little light headed and my cramps have been pretty bad but different than period cramps. What is wrong with me?

I recently had sex for the first time in about 6 months and it was the week before my period started. I am on birth control (Alysena) and have been on this particular one for about 5 years. My boyfriend and I had sex while I was on my period and a few days later my period became very heavy and I started seeing clots every time I went to the bathroom. At this point I have had my period for 8 days even though I have already taken 5 pills out of a new pack. My periods have never been very heavy or long, with the exception of a few times, but it's definitely abnormal. Is this normal after having sex for the first time in a long time?

I had my period 2 weeks ago which went for a few days like normal, a week later i got it again the same as the first time. It eventually went away and then it came to the next week...i had sex with my partner and after i went to the bathroom to go to the toilet i noticed there was light pink discharge... which then later on turned to red and brownish a little bit heavy. Now I'm onto day 2 with it and its still brownish and red very light. I have tender boobs, and mild cramps i've been searching the web to find answers. Ive also been braking out in pimples the last week and it's only just clearing up. Im also have the implanon which i got 2 years ago, usually u get my period for 2 days each few months lightly.

My cycle is irregular to begin with. The last couple months it has gone from 34 days to 36 days to 35 days to 28 days to 30 days. I had my period on august second and wasn't suppose to get it until September 4th. I had sex on august 30th. I then got my period on September 1st. It lasted 5 days as normal but didn't seem as heavy to me. I have been getting dizzy, headaches, a little cramping and nauseous and very sleepy from time to time since last week. On the 13th and 14th I was spotting. Again yesterday and today I have felt sick and had a headache. I have been reading and some places say its not possible and other places say there's a chance I am pregnant. Someone please help me. Also how soon can I take a pregnancy test???
