    whats it mean when its getting shorter??

    Hey ladies

    just a quick question........... I use to ALWAYS have a 4 day AF, the first 2 days were full on bleeding and the last 2 days was light and turning brown.

    for the last 6 or so months my AF has gotten shorter?? I have only been getting my af for 2 days and then its gone?????? the first day is FULLLLLLLLL on bleeding, like massive clots, lots and lots of blood and then the second day it just slows right down and stops.

    has anyone had this happen before?? is there a reason why its gotten shorter??

    i am thinking the worse lol like my period is eventually going to stop coming altogether and i am about to go through manopause(sp?) or something crazy i know lol

    any info on this would be great

    thanks girls xxx

    I'm not sure but mine is the same after having DD2. I used to have bleeding for 5 days and now it is about 2 days and then maybe 1 extra day of really light discharge. I have no idea why other than I used to be on the pill and now I'm not and also I don't really use tampons any more. I have heard that these 2 things can make your periods longer and heavier.
