A member asked:
Usually i had regular period for 7 days but this month it was shorter with normal flow for 2 days and light flow for 1 day then spotting for 1 day. ?

Light flow.: 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.
