Period lasting a long time?

Question: I am 29 years old and my period seems to last a really long time. It starts out with very light spotting for about 3-4 days before it gets heavy. It is heavy for about 3-4 days some times I have blood clots. It then tapers off to spotting for 3-4 more days. Some times start to finish it is 10-12 days! I havent really kept good track of how much time there is between periods but it is about
3 1/2 to 4 weeks. I have given birth to two children and this has been the case since the last one was born in February 2004. Anyone with similar problem?

Answers:
its just irregular ! r u taking birth control ?

Other Answers:
Yep, I was like that and then I had a period for 12 weeks. I have not had any children.
I became anaemic and it turned out that I had endometriosis, ovaries covered in cysts and I had fibroids.

It could be normal, but start paying attention to your cycle and seek medical help.

Maybe it's all the stress your under mom! Wait another month or so, if it doesn't get better consult your GYN.
Good Luck!
