A member asked:
Is it possible to get a lighter period than norm more than a week after period due?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It can be normal for your period to be a week late and lighter than normal but you also should be concerned about the possibility of pregnancy if you have had unprotected intercourse. Stress, medications, and illness can make your period late and lighter, however, to be safe, do a pregnancy test. Hope this helps.
