Menstruation

2021-11-15 19:35:47
I had my first period at the age of 15. Since then my period cycle has been regular. Its only that my date occurs 5-6 days before last period date. It has never been heavy but toleratable n moderately painful. At 33 i gave birth to a boy. I will turn 40 in Mar'22. On 8th i had my periods,by 10 i was fresh. But on 12th it again started bleeding that too sort of little fleshy, on the first day. Its 5th day today its still continues. Is it something serious?

Consult gynecologist. You requires ultrasound and clinical examination for irregular periods.     It may be due to hormonal changes but doing investigations will be better on safe side

As it is the first time, nothing to worry much. It might be because of hormonal changes.... But if it repeats again, need to get the sonography done to rule out the cause
