Female Advice Preferred: period troubles?

[Hannah36]

just wondering if there was anything wrong with me...my last period still went for a week like it always does, but the blood was a dark-ish brown and each day it only used one liner, whats wrong with me?

I'm obviously no professional, but it sounds like you may have had some discharge towards the end? That's normal. Was it that color or that light every day of your period? Are you irregular? That could affect your period as well. Sometimes it might be heavier than usual or lighter. If you're really worried, speak to your doctor or your mom (or a woman adult you can trust) if you're comfortable enough.

I'd also like to say that even if your period seems really light, it's a good idea to change pads every time you go to the bathroom. Just because it doesn't seem like you have to, you should for sanitary reasons. Not changing pads or tampons enough can lead to infections.
