Why is my period lasting soo long? I need it to stop! ?!


Question: Why is my period lasting soo long.? I need it to stop! .?
I know i asked this question a couple of days ago but i want to ask it again to try and understand why. Im 15 and athletic and i started my first period in August. It lasted for 11 days then but it was very light and since then it has been but i have been on my period for 16days now :( it was mixed at first, light and medium and i thought it had gone but its medium again now. I have no cramps or anything. I just really want it to go because im going on holiday in 11 days with my family and i really want to go swimming ( i have tampons but i darent try them)



also, if you suggest going to the doctors i dont think i would dare, id be wayy to imbarrassed and i would worry about what they would do.


How much longer do you think it will last.?



Pleasee help

Answers:
it should definitely end by the time you go on holidays... if it doesn't then tampons are actually a really good choice. i used some for the first time this summer when i went somewhere tropical and wanted to swim and i have never gone back! they are seriously so much better than pads. trust me.
also..if your period is lasting that long your eally should go to the doctor and see whats happening. they aren't going to do anything that you aren't comfortable with...and it will probably make you feel a lot better to find out what's going on with your body. they will be able to help you figure out how to regulate your period.
your period is probably so irregular because of the fact that you are still in the first year of having it... it should get more normal as the years go by.Health Question & Answer

There's no reason to be worried about going to your doctor about this and it really is a good idea. 16 days is a long time to have a period for and you really should tell your doctor about it. Talk to mum or another older woman and ask them to go with you to see the doctor. It really is better to be safe than sorry and only a doctor will be able to help you find out what's causing it and how to stop it.Health Question & Answer

hunn that isnt normal; talk to your parents; call a clinic and talk to them :) use a fake name and stuff and ask, also tampons are the best, you don't even know that your wearing one. and it saves you the werid feeling of feeling the blood well on your period :) just wear a pantie liner till you get use to changing them on timeHealth Question & Answer

Its normal for teens to go for long periods, It may take a year or two for you to be regular. If you are really worried about it you could find a female doctor and they would be more understanding than a male doctor. Stress could be a factor. My daughter had the same problem and I took her to the doctor(female) just to rule out any problems.Health Question & Answer
