just a quick question...

i normally have my period for 5-7 days.
ive just had one that started as it normally does being really heavy and by now i would have 3-5 days of minimal bleeding.but it has stopped dead after 48hours.

how normally is this?

i have had similar from time to time , i start v heavy days 1 and 2 then sometimes nothing for a day then comes back ,generally lighter for further time , i think this happens when im worried or stressed , like at christmas i was going out on work doo, and was worried i would leak etc ... but it stopped for a while then returned next day .

strange but i think thats just normal for me .

i hope it doesnt come back! ive gone back to my normal pants.

this has never happened before. my cycle has been left to go natural since i had my DD 2 years ago. ive also had a menstral migraine this month and had one 2 months ago too. so i think this could become a regular thing

maybe the sudden stop could be something to do with the migraine.

Hi this used to happen to me Dr said sometimes body 'misses a period' and is ok but to always get it checked. If you are getting hormonal related migraine it would be best to speak to a dr I used to freak incase I was pregnant but never was [happy][happy]

its bloody come back!

but only really lightly, damn thought id got away with it,

weird though, i had nothing for about 24 hours.

my migraines will be something ill keep an eye on for a few more months, and if im still getting them ill go to the doc.
