If your period only lasts 2 days what does this mean?

It simply means that this period was shorter than usual, if this continues over the next few cycles mention this to your doctor to make sure all is well.


What does it mean when you come on your period twice in one month?

It means just that - you came on your period twice in one month - it's no more complicated than that. If this was your period, and not your period plus some other vaginal bleeding caused by something else, then it is normal to bleed twice in one month occasionally. The average menstrual cycle is 28 days and as most months have more than 28 days if your cycle is this long or shorter you will see yourself bleeding twice in some months.

What causes a period to last more than 10 days?

A longer, heavier period can indicate a luteal phase defect and/or lack of progesterone. You might talk with your DR concerning a progesterone regiment. This can make your cycles easier and shorter. Also, a heavier/longer period can indicate an early missed miscarriage. If in doubt, check with your Dr who can give you an early ultrasound and blood test to see what is going on. It can also be a uterine fibroid.


What does it mean when you have two periods in one month?

Sometimes having 2 periods in one month is OK. If its because your cycle length was shortened It will usually happen in times of hormonal change such as high stress. I would not read to much into it unless it it happening all the time. Remember that a normal cycle is about 21 days and in the few months with 30 or more days it is very possible that you will get a second period that month. It has happened to me every now and then I'll get my period at the beginning of the month and lucky me by the end of the month I'm starting again! If your cycle is getting shorter and shorter I would talk to your doctor because they will know better than anyone what's going on in your body :) hang in there I know 2 periods in the same month sucks!! I hope this helped!! :)

What does it mean when you have to pee a lot more than usual and feel like your having your period but havent started yet?

It might mean you're going to start soon but peeing has nothing to do with your period. You don't pee more when you get your period. It might mean you've been drinking more liquids than usual but that isn't a sign of getting your period. If you really want to get your period don't worry. It's not all that it's cracked up to be. If you are reluctant to get it, don't worry. It's not as bad as it may seem.
