I have had my period for over half a year now. my last period lasted a weak and was really heavy and painful. normally theyre extremely normal signs?

Painful menses: As a woman gets to her 30's and more, the estrogen made by the ovaries increases, hence the amount of bleeding, pain, bloating and irritable moods increases. Ask your gyn provider about low dose oral contraceptives, which will turn off the estrogen from the ovaries, and considerably reduce menstrual negative events. The "pill" at low doses is safe for most women.
