Hi Shashasha🙂

It's relatively common to stop having periods after previously had them. It can effect 1 in 25 women at some point in their lives.

This is more common in teenage girls and younger women, particularly certain groups, such as professional athletes, dancers and gymnasts🙂

For a full explanation see nhs.uk and search Periods 🙂xB

That happened to me over a year ago now, I would have one blot, then nothing for days then a pretty normal period - if a little lighter than usual. For all the years before that my periods had been the same ! Now it seems, as I suspected that it was the start of the peri-menopause stage and my periods becoming unpredictable! If you are too young for that to happen it may be just one of the varieties of life - or could you be pregnant? Or have you lost a lot of weight? Good luck with it - keep a diary maybe so that if it doesn't settle down you have info for the doctor or well woman clinic.

I recently had something similar, I had just a drop of blood for a "period" for a couple days and then nothing, then suddenly it started again and I was on my "period" for over two weeks. (I am 21 btw)

I ended up going to Express Care and I am pregnant, my body just isn't reacting well.

I recommend checking if your pregnant; if not it could be cause for concern, if yes then it is time to makes some plans :)

Spotting maybe? Get a test done. Retest if no sign of period
