A member asked:

I am experiencing a very light period which is not normal for me, it drops in the morning sometimes in the evening and then it stops.?

Light period: Pregnancy should always be considered in women who might be. Especially if there are any changes to the menstrual pattern or pregnancy symptoms. Do a test and get checked by a gyn.

Light period: Are you on the pill? This could be normal on the pill. Need to see your doctor and get evaluated if not on the pill.
