you should go talk to your dr about this. it really shouldnt last 2 weeks. i know mine gets all messed up from the pill and can last up to 3 weeks, but thats just from the pill screwing my system up. as for amount of blood, yeah, that can change all the time. but really, go see a dr about the lenght of your period, they might be able to help regulate you more

Almost everything is normal because people experience their periods differrantely. Some people have periods that last for only 3 days some people 1 week some have more cramps than others, it all depends on the person so i dont think its a problem.

Hi Confused. I'm not a doctor but I know what u mean. As far as I know, you'r period is very sensitive to your mood. If your stressed or worried and even when ur very active you'll see a difference in the blood.
Depending on how long u have been menstrating it could also be that ur body is still adapting.
If it has been going on for say a year, try and see a doctor or a nurse at the clinic. It might be nothing, but if its something seroius, it better to treat it as soon as possible.

Many women experience regular menstrual cycles which is like clockwork. Their cycle partakes every 28 days on the dot. Other women will experience irregular cycles which can be anything from heavy or light discharge, no discharge, every other month discharge or even twice in a month. There are many factors involved with the irregularities of a cycle such as stress, diet, level of activities, athletic activities, body composition, health related problem, etc.
I suggest you visit your gynecologist to rule out any health issues and conclude what's normal for you.
