A member asked:
Should i go to the doctor if i've been having abnormally light periods for four months and what can be the cause
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Light bleeding: Not all bleeding is a period. It could be that you haven't ovulated a few months and are just having breakthrough bleeding and not a period. You could be pregnant if you are sexually active. If on a birth control pill it could just be a normal side effect of the pill. It could also be new onset hypothyroid. Since its gone over three months, i would see a gynecologist.
