A member asked:
What can i do if my period came 3 days late and only lasted 5 days this is unusual?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible reasons: The main reason for light periods is a change in hormone levels. Causes for what seems to be a light period can include: implantation bleeding in early pregnancy, thyroid problems, eating disorders, excessive exercise, initial periods for a girl, use of an intrauterine device, oral contraceptives & perimenopause.
