This is probabally fine, however it wouldn't hurt to see a doctor, just to be on the safe side :)

Since you say the bleeding is light, you're not hemorraging and your body will replenish the blood lost. Having your period for 14 days is excessive, though and could be another problem. Are you on birth control pills? If so, it can cause continual spotting between periods. If not, make an appointment with your GYN so they can check you out.

14 days is too long. You should see a doctor. If you feel light headed or dizzy you should go to the ER, otherwise make an appointment with your GYN doctor within the next few days.

Once my period went on for 10 days (usual 4 days). I DIDN'T SEE A DOCTOR AND THAT WAS MY BIGGEST MISTAKE. I was later diagnosed with a SERIOUS bleeding disorder. Go to the doctor!!

Do you wear tampons? I had a period once for 15 days, so I went to the doctor. It turned out that I had poked myself inside with the tampon and that was why I was bleeding.

yes it depends on how old you are my 12 year old last month had a real long period but hers was real heavy i took her to the doctor they said that was normal if you only had a few periods your body is still trying to adjust to your new hormones.If your not sure go see your obgyn just to be safe.Take care of your body its important.

I used to bleed this often all the time. I went to the doctor and they put me on the pill to regulate. I was becoming anemic from bleeding so much. Go to the doctor.

is it your first period? If so that could be the reason otherwise i wouldn't go to the dr unless its bleeding alot because it could just be a change in ur cycle thats causing it to go so long.

my guess is that there is definitely something wrong. the color does not sound right. cramping is definitely not something i could tolerate that long. girl, get yourself checked out and soon. bet, you will be glad you did. if for no other reason than to know what is going on with your body.
