A member asked:

Period has been late a couple times but never more then 3 days today is day 5 and i have light bleeding really cranky and cramps what's wrong?

Late period: There is a chance the bleeding you're experiencing will turn into a regular period. The way you describe your condition is very much like one during a period. Just wait and see where it takes you next. In case you're in doubt and there is a chance of pregnancy, don't hesitate to rule that out by doing a pregnancy test.
