A member asked:
Can anemia shorten my periods? this month i had my period one day early which lasted a day(bled just once), my hb came out to be 6.3

No: I hope someone is working up your very low hb level which is not normal needs an extensive workup and a low hb is associated with heavy , not light bleeding, there can be many causes for a low hb, u need to see your regular doc, a gyn and maybe a hematologist.
