Why does your period last a month?

Answer 1

Not all girl's do. It ranges from 3-7 days usually, but can be as extreme as a few hours to twenty five days. They last this long as your body has to break down all the lining in your womb that prepares for a baby. If this all came out in a few hours it would stretch your sex organs and be an uncontrollable flow of blood.

Answer 2

if yours i lasting non stop then i would advice you to speak to your gp or you doctor and if you have informed your mum of this she would probably recomend the same thing the average amount of time your period should last is around 2-4 day hope i have helped <3

Answer 3

It could simply be your own period. Periods are different for different women; perhaps you just have a heavy flow. I used to have pretty heavy periods lasting about a week and a half, so I eventually saw my doctor. She put me on a form of the Birth Control pill- even though I wasn't sexually active at the time, it gave me much lighter, shorter and genrally more manageable periods, and it also prevents all kinds of diseases, and of course, pregnancy. If you are used to significantly lighter periods, it would be a good idea to make an appointment with your doctor or gynecologist. This change could signal that something more serious is wrong; if she or he thinks so, they will probably run a few tests to find of exactly what. Either way, your best bet would be to go to the doctors. Good luck! :)
