How long does AF last?

[polo_princess]

So ladies ... once the arrives, how long is she with you for?

Reason im asking is ive noticed over the last year or so she is with me for less and less. It used to be 5 days or so, now i only get 2 days full flow and shes gone after 3/4 days.

Has anyone else experienced this kinda thing?

 

[Vickie]

Mine has always been a full 5 days (except when I was on the pill and than sometimes it was 10+ days)

 

[TrixieLox]

Mine has got steadily longer and heavier since coming off the pill - not lasts 5-6 days! By the time it finishes, I'm close to the ovulation time! x

 

[Mervs Mum]

Mine have always been fairly light, short and pain free - lucky you I hear ya holla!

2 to 2.5 days from start to finish. Only ever need to use normal absorbency lilets and nothing at night - dont like leaving them in over night but when I'm laid down there isnt enough for even a liner. Doesnt really get to the stage of 'flowing'. Brown to Red then back to browny red - sorry if TMI!

Thats it in a nut shell!!

The same here, about 4 and a half to 5 days.

hi there, dont know if this will help, but I recently came off the implant and I am guessing that this month was the first 'normal' period I have had, and it lasted 12 days!! Yes 12 days, from start to finish, this means that I am very close to ovulating as sson as I finish ( I think) so lots of ppl are different.Good luck!! Candice xx

Mine is typically 3-4 days. One heavy flow day, one medium and one light. OV on 14th and new period 10 to 11 days later.

 

[Arcanegirl]

Mine is about 5/6 days

 

[Chellebelle]

mine is usually around 4/5 days. When I was on the pill I didn't have any side effects... since coming off the pill I get verrrry bad PMT and cramps.

 

[miel]

The same here, about 4 and a half to 5 days.

mine too!

 

[Samo]

i usually get only 2 days of flow then 2 days of light until it's over.

 

[Rumpskin]

I am currently at 5 days - anything between 5 -7 days.

 

[polo_princess]

Nice to see im not going mad then, there are quite a few people who's arent so long

 

[Serene123]

Mine was 3-4 days

 

[Sinead]

I have a short AF too - about 2-3 days followed by 1-2 days of spotting

 

[NeyNey]

I've noticed since Taking Vitex my periods are lighter and shorter, by a few days...and I don't get the terrible cramps I use to

 

[SwissMiss]

Mine are mega short - 1 or 2 days of "flow" (if you can even call it that), and then 2 days of spotting... Cramps have unfortunately been getting worse over the past year though

 

[justme00]

Mine are about 3-5 days. Some times I get horrible cramps and some times I just get minor cramps the first day. My SIL said she used to have 7 day periods with horrible moodyness and cramps until she went on the pill.

 

[jo27]

My first 2 days are quite heavy then it goes quite light usually over in 4 days ish
