A lighter period than usual, only lasted 3 days, no pms. positive i'm not pregnant. what's the problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not sure.: The main reason for light periods is a change in hormone levels. Causes for what seems to be a light period can include: implantation bleeding in early pregnancy, thyroid problems, eating disorders, excessive exercise, initial periods for a girl, use of an intrauterine device, oral contraceptives ; perimenopause.
