A member asked:
My period used to be only 2-3 days and now it lasts up to a week. why?

Lots of reasons: So no reason to be overly concerned but deserves and evaluation. You want to make sure there is no hormonal cause (thyroid, prolactin, PCOS, early menopause) and you may need an ultrasound to look for a fibroid or polyp. over time you can become anemic so better to make sure nothing wrong now
