I'm just after a bit of reassurance please. DD has started her first period at the age of 13. We talk about all sorts including this subject, but are both a bit new to it! She's using pads and gets through about 2 per day, so I guess it's not that heavy, but my concern is that it's been going on for two and a half weeks now. Is this unusual? I know periods can be irregular to start with but is it "normal"to last this long? She's fine otherwise, feels fine in herself, not anaemic looking or overtired.
Do I need to take her to the doctors?
