A member asked:

My period ended 2 days ago, but now it's starting again! but my period last week was lighter than usual and lasted 7 days. what's up? i'm not pregnant

See a doctor: When your period is abnormal, you should see a doctor. It will be best to confirm with a blood pregnancy test and ultrasound to see for ovarian cyst or an ectopic pregnancy. Good Luck.
