Period problems?

Question:

I have been on my period for three weeks now. It is about to be four. and I don't know why. because most of the time it never touches the pad but when I wipe there is blood.

Answers:
It's time to see the doctor.

This isn't normal.

If you're on BCPs (Birth Control Pills) you might need the dose readjusted, or another brand.

Edit:

Then go see the doctor, BCPs might help, but you should discuss the occurrence with your doctor. You could have cysts or polyps in your uterus that could just be bleeding, and it isn't necessarily your period.

if u are on birth control... u could just be irregular, and that is normal

Go see a doctor NOW! it could be serious !

This happened to me when i was 13 and I was too shy to tell anyone so I let it go for a month and a half. I got very weak because I lost too much blood and almost had to get a blood transfusion. BUT: it's a really simple problem to fix. They don't even have to look at you down there. They will actually put you on the birth control pill to regulate your hormones and it will fix it really fast. After hiding it all that time, I found out that 4 of my friends had the same thing happen. It's very common when you're younger. If you're not that young, just go to the doctor and I can almost guarantee that it's super easy to fix. But make sure you do go to the doctor, because if left unfixed, you will become anemic which makes you really dizzy, tired, cold, and having trouble breathing. Best of Luck... you'll be fine!

Call your doctor immediately!

Periods should be from 3-10 days.
