A member asked:
I've only had 1 day of heavy period, what could be wrong?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shorter/ Lighter: The main reason for light periods is change in hormone levels. Causes for what seems to be a light period can include: thyroid problems, eating disorders, excessive exercise, initial periods for a girl, use of an intrauterine device, oral contraceptives, perimenopause ; implantation bleeding in early pregnancy which rarely occurs.
