A member asked:

My period started a day early. the bleeding was normal but it only lasted 3 days instead of 5-7 days. is there something wrong or could i be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. For your concern do a home pregnancy test and if it is negative repeat it in 4-5 days. Consult this site. http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/menstruation/conditioninfo/Pages/causes.aspx Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
