The normal range of a menstrual period can be anywhere from 3-10 days. If your period goes on much longer than usual, or you continue to bleed heavily for more than 10 days, you should see a doctor as soon as possible, as this could be a life-threatening condition.
However, it's pretty common for a woman's period to "taper off", where you have just a bit of blood or spotting for a few days after most of it's done.
What it means when your period lasts longer then a week is usually stress related. It also can mean that your hormones are changing and altering your cycle. Sometimes the birth control you are on affects the amount of time you're on your period too.
Some people have periods that last for 2 weeks, however a week-9 days is more average. If your period does not normally last for 9 days, then you should speak to your doctor about it
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.
23 + 17 = 40 to maintain an average of 21 you would need 63 for a 3 week period. So you would need 23 more on the third week to maintain a 21 call average. (23+17) = (40 - 63) = 23 :]
Menstruation usually lasts 3 to 5 days, but anywhere from 2 to 8 days is considered normal. Having a shorter (or longer) period is nothing to worry about.
Your period may last longer than the patch-free week. Continue using the patch as scheduled, regardless of bleeding.

It's not "normal" but it happens to some women
It means your period came a week earlier than you had predicted.That's it, there's nothing more to this than that - your period was just early.
If you have a period than you are not pregnant
a week than a day
You can not be pregnant if you have your period at all. However, if you have missed a week of your birth control pills you do have the chance of becoming pregnant if you have unprotected sex.
The chances of getting pregnant are always high - a week before or even after. The sperm can hang around a lot longer than you think. Don't rely on the cycle period of conception. Use a condom or refrain if you want to remain safe.
All this means is that your period is longer than normal. The fact you had sex a few days before your period doesn't change your menstrual flow.
If your period last longer then ten days I think you should talk to your doctor and she should be able to tell you what to take to stop your period, because I heard that it is some things to buy to stop your period last even longer than that.
