If you have had: Bleeding for 6 months - that requires prompt gynecological eval. If your periods have been light over that time - there are a number of possible reasons. The main reason for light periods is change in hormone levels. Causes for what seems to be a light period can include: thyroid problems, eating disorders, excessive exercise, initial periods for a girl, use of an intrauterine device, oral >.

Bloating: Unless the bloating is specifically occuring only around your menstrual cycle the two things may not be related. Bloating can be caused by pms but if it happens at other times of the month it is more likely be realted to diet or digestive problems.
