My name is hannah, this is my second period because i started my period a month ago. The first time it lasted for 4 days and now it lasted for 3 days. Is it normal that it last 1 less of a day. Im scared that if i have my third period it might only last for 2 days and im only 14 years old.

@ Hannah : Hannah, since you are so young and just started having periods, it is probably nothing to worry about. Anywhere between 2 and 8 days fall in the normal range. When you first hit puberty, your period will be irregular and different lengths with different amounts of time between them. As long as you are not sexually active, you shouldn't have anything to worry about, except being surprised when it comes. Just carry pads or tampons or whatever you prefer to use with you at all times. If you don't need them, your friends will. If you are still having sketchy periods in a year or so, then speak to your mother or whomever the adult female in your life is about seeing a doctor. Right now you are fine. More than likely, they'll start to come every 28 days or so and last the normal amount of time. Again, give it a year or even two before you worry.
