Hi

So this month my period is going onto the 10th day, never had a long period before I’ve always either gone 6-7 days max. Should i be worried?

Had a blood test recently for another reason and came back with low vitamin d levels and low iron levels.

Advice or anyone been through this

Xxxx

A normal period length is between 6 and 8 days so this is longer than is considered normal in a health woman.There's loads of reasons, like the menopause or birth control or side effects from certain medications, that are nothing to worry about but a long period can also be a sign that there is something wrong. It might be a good idea to book a chat with your gp to put your mind at rest.

Good luck x

Hello there.

I'm the same. Currently on day 12!! Used to only go 7 days max. 😵‍💫 And it's not showing signs of stopping either. Last cycle was the same.

I'm also low iron but Vitamin D was good. I've no idea anymore what's going on. Just tired of it all.
