A member asked:

Had a 12 day period this past month is that normal or should i be worried ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Long period: That is longer than usual but if there was more time between periods, this could be normal. If you usually have fewer days of flow and 1 month apart, this could be an issue. See your doctor if this continues over another cycle or two.
