Q: 2wk Period...little Considered..any Ideas Why?

Normally I get my period on the 25th of the month and it starts off light for the first day or so then goes to heavy for two days then stops. A typical period for me lasts about 4-5 days. This month I got my period on the oct 31st which is 5 days late and it started like normal light, but I still have my period as of today, which is the 18th. It's still very light to where I only need to use a pantyliner. I'm a little nervous to why I still have it for this long. I have been under a lot of stress the last month or so,would that contribute to the abnormal period? Please help :cry:

I had my period in september for 18 days and then the doctor gave me pills to stop it.

It can denfenitly be due to stress,but there are many other reasons also so you'd be better off if you check with your doctor. It could be nothing, or something quite serious.

I'm still having tests and stuff so they can figure out whats wrong with me, I have high levels of prolactin so they think its some kind of swelling in the brain or something.

You'd be safer if you could check with your doc just to illiminate anything serious.

Hope that helps
cheers

Well I went to the doctor yesterday and all she gave me was birth control to stop my period. She said all the stress I was under was a factor and the birth control would get me back on track. Thanks for your advice.
