menstrual period question?

I am a little unsure with this one...spotting can sometimes be normal, however, if this keeps happening, you might have a hormonal problem, or less likely but still possible, if you have engaged in sexual intercourse, you may have an std. But I wouldn't worry. Probably just a little normal spotting.

It all depends on your cycle. If you have a 25 day cycle and your period comes in the beginning of the month you'll most likely get your period again at the end of the month.

Just as some girls begin puberty earlier or later than others, the same applies to periods. Some girls may start menstruating as early as age 9 or 10, but others may not get their first period until later in their teens. The amount of time between a girl's periods is called her menstrual cycle (the cycle is counted from the start of one period to the start of the next). Some girls will find that their menstrual cycle lasts 28 days, whereas others might have a 24-day cycle, a 30-day cycle, or even a 35-day cycle.\nThe amount of time that a girl has her period also can vary. Some girls have periods that last just 2 or 3 days; other girls may have periods that last 7 days or longer. The menstrual flow — meaning how much blood comes out of the vagina — can vary widely from person to person, too. Some girls have such light blood flow that they wonder if they even have their period at all.\n\nOther girls may be concerned that they're losing too much blood. It can be a shock to see all that blood, but it's highly unlikely that a girl will lose too much: For most girls an entire period consists of anywhere from a few spoonfuls to less than 1/2 cup (118 milliliters) of blood — it just looks like a lot! It is possible for a girl to lose an excessive amount of blood during her period, but it's not at all common. (In some cases, a girl can bleed too much because she has a medical condition — such as von Willebrand disease.) The amount of blood a girl loses and how long her period lasts can differ from month to month.\n\nIf you're worried about your blood flow or whether your period is normal in other ways, talk to a doctor or nurse. Some changes in menstrual periods can be normal — but only a doctor can help determine the cause of irregular, heavy, painful periods, or no periods at all.

A normal, regular menstruation lasts for a few days (usually 3 to 5 days, but anywhere from 2 to 7 days is considered normal).  Laying down or standing up or being active will not alter the time that it takes for your uterus to shed the endometrium lining, which is the the tissue that is mixed with the blood.

The 11th day from the start of your period.  So, if your period started on the 8th, then the 19th would be the day!  Some can also feel that they are ovulating by that little pain/ache/pinch in their side(s).  (Word to the wise - try it the 9th after your period through the 13th day if you guys can!)

On average, periods last 4 to 6 days. It really depends on the person. Some have really short ones like 2 days and others really long ones like 7 or even 8. If it last for a longer period of time, ask your doctor about it.

This can be true due to an increase in blood accumulation in the pelvic area. Some women feel exactly the opposite due to social stigma and also due to cramping and other pains. During g your period YOU ARE NOT OVULATING, the period is when the endometrium is sloughing off not ovulation. Ovulation occurs 5 to ten days before or after menstruation.

Yes this is perfectly normal... when i first got my period it lasted about a week and a half, then i got it again about 3 weeks later. Your period will be irregular to begin with until your body gets used to the change. Once this happens you will only get it roughly once a month and most periods only last for about 3-7 days depending on the individual.\n\nIf further down the track your periods continue to be irregular you might want to consider the pill (contraceptive). The pill will make your period regular and will stop you from bleeding for as long. The bonus out of this also is that you can tell exactly when you'll get your next period and the pill also gives you the option to skip periods which is actually good for girls (only if you skip it once in a blue moon, so like say every 3-4 months).\n\nHope this info helped, if you have any further questions consult your doctor as they are the best people to get this kind of info from. Good Luck Hun : )

the menstrual cycle stops for 9 months becuase the lining of the uterus (period) is being used to help the growing cell (baby) so it doesnt shed.

relax...that one inch piece of blood is most  likely a blood clot which is normal...if you're this unsure about your period you are probably younger and just starting your period...which will be irregular and last longer than normal...i once had a heavy period that lasted for 2 weeks and the i went to the doctor and they said it's normal you're body's just adjusting...so don't worry...

following a major event like marriage, you friend may be experiencing 'stress' which can effect a woman's menstrual period.  I suggest your 'friend' make an appt with her doctor to discuss this.

boy do I have a story for you!  I once had my period for 23 day straight.  I first went to my normal doctor and she did absolutely nothing.  No tests were run or anything.   I then went to the gyno hoping for an answer.  He preceeded to tell me that it was because I was fat and that the fat cells give off more estrogen and that can prolong your period.  I went home crying still not knowing exactly what to do about the problem.

Well if you got your period,then you aren't pregnant dear. The menstrual cycle is never really predictable,they just happen to say 28 days because its the average amount of time to wait. Don't spazz.

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.

hmm... if your period just ended, that means the ovule is out of your body, and a new one starts a 28 days journey. that is plenty of time for those little tailed cells to die (7 days life). You're allright. Been there, done that, and I'm not a mom :D \n\n*hugs
