a period will usually last between 2 and 7 days with the average being five.

there is also something called a woman's cycle. this is the amount of days between the last day of her previous period and the first day of her next.

any number above 9 and you should see your gynocologist.

When a woman first starts (in adolescence), it can be very irregular. But after about a year, it should settle down into a routine. It's different for every woman. Some have light, some heavy. Some last 2-3 days, some 7-10. I'd say less than 2 or more than 10 days is a cause for concern. Less, because that's not a "real" period, just spotting, and you could have a problem, or be pregnant. More, because you could have ruptured something, be having a miscarriage, or other health problems- plus, you could become anemic.
Also, I'm not sure what you're asking, but a woman usually has her periods until her 50's.

Every woman's cycle (the time from the first day of your menstrual period until the first day of your next menstrual period) is different. On average, women have their menstrual period (bleed) for 3-7 days. On average, the length of a woman's cycle is 28-32 days. Therefore, this leaves plenty of room for a woman to vary from her neighbor, friend, or co-worker. Women also vary in the severity of symptoms that occur before and during menstruation.

Usually 4-5 days, but it all depends on your body. All women experience different periods.
