Help very strange periods.......

I hav had 2 stranger af's now since christmas, the frst was odd because it was just very "light" did not last long & was not dark red blood just pale.

Just had another af which i started sptting on friday, little bit more saturday still very light in colour, stayed like this & came to an end yesterday, nothing like my periods they are normally quite heavy & bright blood (sorry for tmi)

Now it is one of 2 things pregnant (which i really pray not) or could it be because i am stressed & it is effecting my body? i am on the pill so my af's are normally regular & the same.....

Stress can cause periods to become erratic.

i would take a test to make sure your not pregnant, and then go and see a doctor if things dont improve.

Are you up to date with our smear tests?

Will take a test don't really feel pregnant though, what happens if it is because of stress is it bad for your body when your eriods go wrong? i am due a smear now about a month late....is there something i should be aware of?

no no no, don't worry, regular smears pick up changes, it may be an infection or something similar, dont worry about anything serious with regard to smear as I believe they take 8+ years to before serious.
Sorry if I worried you
