Ok so I recently got my period. Thing is its really REALLY light . It doesn't show up on a panty liner or in the toilet. Only when I wipe myself and when I do that it looks pink. What's going on with me? Is this simply a hormonal problem? I'm not on birth control or anything,. . . Could this perhaps be a sign of pregnancy?

MariValenz, This was not a normal period but what is called 'spotting'. If you have been having unprotected sex, you might be pregnant. Take a pregnancy test and follow the instructions.

Best of luck

strange period
oh ok ill do that just in case .
hmmmm well besides pregnancy would this perhaps just be some hormonal imbalance due to stress ??
ive suddenly also sprung up with acne,. . this "spotting" has actually gotten a tiny bit heavier and has happened on the time i would be expecting my period and is lasting that long also. . .
