Is this normal?

I’m sorry if I’ve added to the wrong page.

My 12 year old daughter started her periods in May this year. She’s been quite normal and “come on” around the same anaemic. (Appreciate periods are all over the place around this time)

However, with her most recent period, she’s been on 9 days, and I’d say a little heavy. I did read up on it, and it says it could be due to her not having released an egg. (Ridiculous that a 12 year old even needs to)

It’s been such a long time since I started mine, and I don’t recall them being so lengthy.
it makes me feel sad for her and I’m also worried she could become anaemic

Thank you for reading.
