This happened to my daughter repeatedly, turns out she has a cyst on her ovary and right now they are trying to treat it with hormone therapy.

Maybe nothing. It could be stress that's making you have another period. If you have abnormal bleeding or cramping you may want to see a doctor.

3 1/2 weeks since? Thats only 24-25 days... most people's cycle is 28 days... ? \n\nAre you experiencing any pregnancy symptoms?\n\nIt doesn't sound like you are... your period (depending on your cycle) should be coming within the next week.

Do you exercise a lot and/or strenuously?  have you been dieting?  If a woman doesn't have a reasonable percentage of body fat, her periods will stop.  You might also have your thyroid checked.  I had the opposite problem -- a period for 72 days, and it turned out I had Thyroid disease.\n\nNo matter what the reason, you should probably have a check-up.  Something's not right...\n\nGood luck!

I wouldn't be concerned right away, if that's your only symptom.  If you have extreme pain/cramping, or extreme change in level of flow, go to the doctor.  Otherwise, if it's just the timing of the cycle, watch it for a few months to see if there's a pattern.  Then if you're still concerned, go to a doctor.  That's my advice.  :)\n\nI know my cycle gets a little longer around the holidays due to stress.  Plus, some women just aren't that regular.  If you have a history of differing length of times, it could just be a symptom of that.\n\nDon't worry, not necessarily a tumor.  :)

OK first off those are called blood clots which are completely normal during your period as your body collects the blood for 28 days.  It is just a normal thing for you body to do and there is nothing to be worried about.  If you are concerned then talk to your gynecologist.  He/She will be able to give you more information and reassure you that this is completely normal.

It could be many different reasons... you should see your doctor... it's possible they may prescribe a pill to force your period to start.

Sometimes when you are under a lot of stress your period lasts longer. Sometimes that happens to me. Or it could have been a miscarriage you didn't know about.

If your menses have always been this way then it may be "normal" for you.  Sometimes bleeding will change in amount, but hasn't completely stopped.  If I count your days correctly, this is about a week.  Some womens' menses last a week which is normal for them...If you are concerned talk with your gyne about it...\nGood luck...

That happened to me a few months ago. Have you been really stressed out at anything lately? Stress can cause irregular periods or have you started eating anything different lately? Good luck on the doc. appt. tomorrow!

I'm going through the same thing right now and know for a fact that I'm not pregnant, (having been sexually active in a long time), so I know that stress and exercise can cause dramatic changes in your cycle. Don't worry. Doctor's appointment is a good idea. Happened to me once before and when it started up again, it lasted two weeks, (that really sucked). It will be OK. You're probably just stressing about a test or job, etc. and don't even realize it.

it happens to many women. sometimes we have irregular months, caused by bad nutrition, stress, or maybe even nothing.\nif it bleeds for a couple days, you are fine. if it lasts longer, or if it keeps happening, then that could be bad.\n\ni would say just relax and enjoy your thanksgiving, it's really nothing :)

I am on the pill and my last day is Sunday. I never start my period before Thursday. So I wouldn't be to worried. It has always been that way for me.

You need to see a gynocologist.  Your march period was way too long. You are losing too much blood.
